Morning Mr Vogel, I believe we in the US do ourselves a disservice by not using the metric system. After all our money is metric, would you rather have 12 or 16 cents to the Dollar?
We loose out in international trade because we are not metric, Germany which has high labor costs but has a trade surplus, I hate to mention our trade deficit! We are still using the Kings units, we dumped the King over 200 years ago, we should also dump his units. Michael Payne Potomac Falls, Virginia.
