Apart from the USA, do any other countries use ounces for their postal system. The UK has been using metric units since the 1970's

Bushnell Sent: 18 March 2009 20:36 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:43989] postage in grams 2009 March 18 On 2009 March 13 I asked the US Postal Service: Where can I find postage rates in grams? When will postage rates be in grams? From [email protected] Steven S of USPS answered: postage pricing is determined by ounces. We do not have any plans of changing the pricing system to grams. I then asked: why USPS does not comply with Executive Order 12770 and the Metric Conversion Act of 1975? Steven S of USPS then replied: we do not have any information pertaining to compliance with Executive Order 12770 or Metric Conversion Act of 1975. He then said You are welcome to contact your Post Office for any additional Information. Based on your zIP Code of 80303, the contact information for your Post Office is: FLAT IRONS ANNEX 1800 38TH ST BOULDER CO 80301 Can any of you tell me how to proceed? Robert Bushnell
