Aa Nau Bhadra Kritvo Yantu Vishwatah -Rg Veda.
     *****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!

And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule!

Another thing about costs.

Our society takes surveys for almost anything. I wonder if there is an organisation in the US that polls companies as to their methods of doing business.

One thing I would like to know is how much it has cost us for not being metric. How many businesses have lost orders or contracts because they could not do the job in metric? How many have made costly mistakes in converting a metric job to FFU? How many have had to pay a premium for metric parts because they only bought enough for a specific job? How many people have had to be terminated because they refused to work in metric? How much has not going metric really cost us? Have any estimates ever been made?

Metrication is a one time expense, but not going metric is an on going expense. How many ever see it from this angle?
