.....Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody!I hope I rephrase it right.
Since 1970, I have been that Nobody, who Anybody thought, was Somebody, being bullied by Everybody.
Metrication for All - the keyword: BUT metrication that talks of length unit - Metre linked to Time unit. Or a mud hut in the middle of jungle.....seem solace for survival!

*****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! ***** ***** ***** *****

For Anybody to do it, Somebody needs to form a powerful lobbying group to go to Capito Hill in DC meaning that lots of money will be involved and it seems like Nobody has the cash or is willing to come up with it.

Dear All,
Does this story resonate with anyone in the metrication community?
Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody
This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody, and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done (metrication?)* and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it. Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody's job.
Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that Everybody wouldn't do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done!
