You wrote to Andy Johnson: > I know that now in Canada > and the UK you still sometimes see both sets of units used. Maybe. But you very seldom see imperial units alone, but usually metric alone. Our experience in Canada was that opposition to metric only became vocal when people were afraid that they would have to ask for their food to be weighed out in kilograms and thus their ignorance would be evident. There was no opposition to metric as long as people did not have to use it but were merely exposed to it. Joseph B. Reid 17 Glebe Road West Toronto M5P 1C8 Tel. 416 486-6071
