Subject: [USMA:27697] BWMA's Bluster

It occurs to me that the BWMA and their ilk are treading on very thin
ice. After all, who seriously thinks that most of sectors of the British
economy holding out to use Imperial measures would continue to do so for
very long if the United States embarked on an Australian-like program
(not that we will) to conver to metric? Makes mince-meat of their
notions behind retaining traditional units and the "freedom to measure"
argument.

Post US Thanksgiving punditry while digesting left-over turkey ...
