"Industrial Heating can't force the implementation of the metric system any
more than the Federal Government can. But, as an engineering trade magazine
with an international distribution, we must meet the needs of engineers,
scientists and managers both in the U.S. (where the English system of units
still predominates in many areas) and overseas (where the metric system is
the standard). We get editorial material containing solely English, solely
metric and a combination of units of measurement. But we don't want you to
have to do the conversions. So, until the metric system is the sole system
of measurement in the U.S., (which is not likely to happen in my working
lifetime), we've made it our policy to provide both systems of measure where
appropriate."
