Two years ago when I went to the doctor's office I got on the scale,
looked it the beam, saw it had two sets of notches and two engravings
to read; pounds and kilograms.
I set the weight in the 50 kg notch and read the balance number from
the kg scale; 65.x kg. I read the number to the nurse. She said do
it in pounds. I looked her in the eye and said "Who is paying for
this? Do it in kilograms." She backed off, wrote something down and
went away.
Folks, keep the pressure on.
