Hi,

Since I came to US 10 years ago there have been 4 things that bothered me. I
wonder if any of these almost exclusively (as far as I know) items have
anything to do with Metric vs. Imperial. 

1. Why the heck every calendar has Sunday as first day of the week? For the
religious in this group, even god rested on the seventh day, not the first!

2. AM/PM To this day I have no clue what noon is. I cringe when someone
calls 13:00, military time.

3. January 1, 2004. In Europe, it would be written 1 January, 2004.

4. Letter sized paper vs. A4.

Any comments please?

Thanks,
Predrag
