I was watching the History Channel special about Desert Storm Tuesday night and it used miles and feet throughout the show. The only exception was that they used millimeters to describe the guns. When I noticed "62 miles/hour" and "330 feet" I went to their website's feedback section and wrote in about it. I told them that these were obviously conversions from 100 km/h and 100 m. I told them that we were enjoying the show, but that it was kind of annoying that they were consistently changing these simple, round metric measurements. The military uses the metric system, so they should just leave these things as they were. It's good to see that not all shows on the channel have that problem. Carl
