I just listened to the interview. I think Mark does a wonderful job explaining things to listeners. The last listener comment cracked me up about speaking Latin. I posted a permanent link to this interview on the front page of www.MetricPioneer.com just in case anyone wants to find it quickly.

Hello everybody: I was interviewed on National Public Radio on Tuesday, June 9 in response to Lincoln Chafee's call for the USA to switch to the Metric System. Here is the link in case you want to listen to the 11 minute interview: http://hereandnow.wbur.org/2015/06/09/us-metric-system As a result of that interview, I was asked for an hour long interview and question and answer session on Wednesday, June 17 for Wisconsin Public Radio. At the end of the interview, a survey was taken to see how people who were listening felt about US metrication. The results were 80 percent in favor of the US going metric, 15 percent opposed, and 5 percent undecided. Here is the link to the entire hour long interview in case any of you want to hear it: http://www.wpr.org/shows/big-question-should-us-go-metric Mark Henschel
