Paul, sir & friends:
.....Countering the "heritage" argument..
Is heritage - the issue of ZONES? If so, where does man belong to?

Funny you should ask. USMA members and interested readers might refer to
the editorial in the most recent Metric Today for a possible answer to this
question.

I find that most of the positions against metric are pretty easy to
rebuff. But how does one counter the argument that USC is part of our
heritage, that it's as American as apple pie? The patriot card seems to be
the toughest one to beat, even though one could bring up the fact that the
current measuring system is defined exclusively in metric, or that the US
has been a significant participant and contributor to the development of
SI.
