I was searching for a picture of the relationships between the
metric base units and derived units, and I found something on Google
images. It was a piece of paper taped to a post that said, "The
metric system is stupid! Stop jamming it down our throats!" But it
doesn't end there. It turns out there is an entire page on a website
related to this. http://www.stevegarufi.com/antimetricholiday2005.htm
Dear David,
If you know how to contact this person, you might like to suggest that
he reads the article, 'Don't use metric.' at http://www.metricationmatters.com/docs/DontUseMetric.pdf
If he genuinely disapproves of the metric system, then he could
preserve his honesty and his integrity by refusing to use the metric
system altogether.
Cheers,
