This story shows again that we should not use centimeter. It is too close to 
inch.                              Robert Bushnell

 Wife measures in inches at home, and in centimeters in store.  Great line, "I 
just thought they were small inches." It ends questioning why we use the ruler 
of the ruler we overthrew in 1776 and advocates the US going metric.
