I, personally, did not take exception to your comments about the Founding Fathers; however, I think they are tremendously unhelpful! The way you set up your question regarding metric legislation is now feeding into the narrative that customary units are somehow "American" and the people who support a metric measurement conversion are un-American or unpatriotic! You took an opportunity to ask a serious question and coupled it with Founding Father (U.S. history) bashing. I am not sure why you think that is a good strategy for our movement.
