Good sir, while you might have something intelligent to say re: The posting on Salish 
Indians, it insults me to do so with profanity and threats. That kind of reaction will 
get our cause no place fast.

To respond to the actual posting: The Salish Indians should be taught to understand 
that the metric system is based on the natural environment. Most metric units are 
based on a natural phenomena and I do believe the base number 10 is the number of 
fingers and toes we have (can't get more natural than that). Do these people use the 
English language to communicate with their fellow "European" Canadians? If so they 
why? Its a European language artificially created....
