I find the comments quite interesting. And possibly a barometer on what concerns people most?
Worth pondering. From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [USMA:46598] Burma Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2010 16:56:58 +1100 Dear All, I came across this quote from a most unlikely source, Peter Hitchens in an anti-metric diatribe at http://hitchensblog.mailonsunday.co.uk/2010/02/collected-works.html By the way, before someone mentions this canard, it's not true that Burma hasn't metricated. It has, as I can recount from my own visit there.
