Ezra, I'm not sure why you keep pointing out the BBC using metric.
They've done it for years. It's not impressive.
Now if you said ABC or CBS or NBC news did the same, then I'd be impressed.
Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I came across the news video report below on the BBC News web site
(International Edition) that describes a French car that uses
compressed air to drive the engine:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/check/player/nol/newsid_7170000/newsid_7171000?redirect=7171043.stm&news=1&nbwm=1&nbram=1&bbwm=1&bbram=1&asb=1
I presume that the fact that this is on the Int'l Edition explains
why all the info about the vehicle is in metric, including the top
speed (since all speed limits in the UK are still in Imperial only).
Still, it was fun to see the metric (and to learn about the car!)
