DeVelera must be spinning in his >grave! >Cly T'aurus, USA >... The above attitude says it all. This individual simply doesn't get how wrong he is on a few things. First of all, there are countless nations out there that use this perfect decimal system. There is undeniable proof that it's *far* superior to the American one, period! I see no reason why one should immitate that system when there is clearly a much better one. This guy and so many others simply refuse to get it! Oh, well, too bad for him, since, as long as the rest of the world doesn't get steamrolled by this "propaganda", we'll continue to kick their butts in better efficiency, productivity, etc. Marcus Is your boss reading your email? ....Probably Keep your messages private by using Lycos Mail.
