Folks, this is the problem. We MUST, absolutely *MUST* set the example. Please forgive me for saying this (and with all due respect) but it's UTTERLY ***UNACCEPTABLE*** that we, *metric supporters* OURSELVES, speak the very "language" we want to rid the world of. Please, P-L-E-A-S-E, no more of ' 2" ', ' 2 3/4" ', ' 1/2 inch ', ' 12 inches ', etc, *exclusively*! What is this???

the universal fanfold computer printer paper spaces its sprocket
 >holes at 12.7 mm intervals, it is usual to print on continuous paper
 >with 304.8 mm vertically between folds.
