You've got to be more sly about this. I get away with murder using metric in an everyday context, partly because I've learned to think between the two systems - so imperial just becomes slang for round metric units - but also because I simply use it without making a big deal of it, and act confused when someone asks for a translation.
Don't make an obvious target of yourself. It's more fun being the fly than the ointment.

Take it for what it is worth! I feel it makes a mockery of those of us who do use metric and have changed. Others may feel different. John
