It seems that another US state (Idaho?) is reverting to ifp. I found 
this essage on the Metricamerica group.

I have been a Civil Engineer for over 25 yrs.  I do highway designs 
as a consultant to State Transportation Depts. (mostly Idaho).  What 
happened?  We were converted to metric in 1985, the feds forced the 
issue, by threatening to withold funds, but it was done.  Now most 
ever engineer whole heartedly enjoys using meters.

So what happens?  Now we are informed that we are changing back to 
Imperial Units. As of now all new highways will be in feet and inches.

What happened?  Who did this to me?  Why?  Who should I call?
