Washingtonpost has given this article which says that Hispanic (Spanish speaking) population has grown by 60 % in the last decade to 35 millions. This will promote metric system in 2 ways 1. Hispanics will prefer NAFTA (Trilingual) made goods since it includes Spanish language. 2. Immigrants and their children have the tendency to read metric units in the products. Probably this is the reason why the companies are selling more NAFTA goods in the US market. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A32121-2001Mar6.html __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
