For years I have been pessimistic about metrication in the US absent a real federal leadership effort. No amount of messaging on this site will change this. Unless the feds do something, it will be SOS--the same old story. Those of us who are so inclined can look at our metric digital automotive displays all day long, and no one will pay attention to us.
Forgive me for being pessimistic, but from my point of view, not a lot has changed for the better in the last ten years. It is so sad that it would take just a small push from the feds, such as requiring that all milk cartons sold in military PXs be in liter size containers, and so forth. HARRY WYETH
