I once heard an ifp-apologist asked the following in a newsgroup:
"So what's the difference between adopting the metric system - which you
claim you do not understand, and clinging to the Imperial system - which you
equally do not understand".

I
would ask this.
How many Americans actually know how many ounces there are in a pound, or
how many pints there are in each gallon?
The imperial system is deemed so good by it's supporters, yet I understand
the US gallon is different to the British gallon, so it's not a very
reliable measurement, is it?
