Actually, There is good mathematic reason for the existing system. Fractions. Basically, it's a whole lot easier to find common denominators in the imperial measurement system, and thusly do more complex division in ones head. Personally, I have a calculator now, and hate math, so I'm all for going metric, but I just wanted to point out that there is actually good reasons for the seemingly strange numbers our existing system uses. - -- Jayce^ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (Darwin) iD8DBQFDFmJhA10/0O8cAHgRAt51AJoDMbQHebjDD8paNV/tI7q8mz3cEACfW8HW 1/L1k4DehaBTDxi5IgPwrUE= =r8M4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- .-----------------------------------. | This has been a P.L.U.G. mailing. | | Don't Fear the Penguin. | | IRC: #utah at irc.freenode.net | `-----------------------------------'
