Adrian, that looks great! My car's plate says METRICM (for Metric
Methods) and my wife's country cadillac (a Chevy S10 pickup) sports a
plate that says METRIC8.

The only time I've heard anyone try to pronounce my plate it sounded
like "me trick'em" --- not what I had hoped for, but I think they were
tweaking me. Scores of people have asked my wife why her's says "metric
eight", and she coaches them into running those two words together. I
guess her plate does better than mine at advertizing the metric system;
it sparks conversations.

Hopefully, yours will spark many conversations as well.

Jim
