I think a lot more Americans would use the metric system if only they
had just a little encouragement. We can provide that encouragement. If
just one person, after seeing my bumper sticker, starts using the metric
system a little more in his daily life, then it was worth it! The
anti-metric folks aren't going to use the metric system anyway, so why
worry about their reactions?

I'm thinking about getting some of the new 'patriotic' GO METRIC bumper
stickers. They look cool but I can't decide if a message saying GO METRIC
would raise awareness and acceptance or have the opposite effect. To some
people it may raise awareness to fight our metric progress. In that case a
stealthy approach would be better. What do some of you think?
