Maybe he should have said he would be out from 14430 to 14435. This is the
u2 list after all.

The US? Metric? Maybe in science but think back to the recent lost
satellite that was caused by an error between standard and metric
because metric was assumed by everyone except the vendor for a part. If
the red on that image is supposed to be countries that use metric then
someone is pulling your leg. Invert the colours and you might get
countries that use metric.
Personally, I think that the dates should be standardized to YY/MM/DD.
It makes sense to show general to most specific. Look at mailing
addresses and you see the same issue. Country on the last line when
maybe it should be first?

The USA leads the way in other innovations too:

(The funny thing is, the US really is an innovator. Go figure.)
