A couple mentions this morning... Nat
---------------- >>Initial applicants to Siemens Diesel lacked a variety of skills. All of Siemens' precision work involves the metric system, which many applicants didn't understand and couldn't convert. >> http://www.thestate.com/mld/thestate/news/local/7961908.htm ----------------------------------------- >>> Generally speaking, all archeological reports are written in the metric system so that archeologists from Europe can read our reports. Stupid! We migrated here to get away from their way of thinking. Why should we conform to their measurements? Maybe the younger generation can handle the metric system but I am too old to be very comfortable using it. >> http://www.corsicanadailysun.com/articles/2004/02/15/news/news11.txt
