Some of us are still here doing things in our various, sometimes quiet,
ways.

My friends have long since realized I'm not going to give them anything in
inches, miles, quarts ...

And when I go to Subway I will ask for "the small one" or "the big one" but
refuse to say "six inch" or "footlong".  (Once, the counter person asked
why; I told him.)

I guess it's like that period in World War I when nothing major was going
on, but the countries were still at war.  What was it called?

Ultimately there will be some kind of breakthrough.  A President with
conviction and enough peole in Congress who won't listen to the whiners.

It seems that the interest in metrication is about dead.  Since there
haven't been any postings in a few days it seems the few that did post must
have given up and moved on.

The BWMA site isn't doing much better.  They get some postings, but nothing
of real interest.
