Hello I do not want to be dis respectful to anybody on this site but i don't think the U S has any plans to impirialise the world. The U S has been and still is an economic super power.  If the U S were going to impirialise the world it would have happened before now.  They could have imperialised Germany after ww 2 when they rebuilt German industry.  I don't want to see the U S ecconimy collapse that would have a  negative effect world wide.  Is there as much resistance to metric in America as is sometimes displayed on this list.  May i say another thing.  I feel we should try to stay on the topic of how to metricate both Canada and the States.  If we get off on topics that are off the wall remember the BWMA  is out there.  If they saw us talking about things that are off the wall they would laugh in our faces, and say those metric people are really out in left field.  I want to be held accountable and if i bring up a topic on this site that is in left field please let me know.  Nothing would make me happier than to see metric excepted in the States and Canada and the U K by the average person walking down the street.  Again i don't want to step on anybodys toes but we have a really good chance to promote metric here so lets not blow it by talking about things that don't help our cause. Thank you everybody for listening to me. John Mercer.
