Hi: I was thinking the other day that some people think the word "metric" is foreign. That could be one of the monkey wrenches that keeps our country mostly using legacy measures. So, since we use a decimal system of coinage, I propose that we call the metric system of weights and measures simpl;y the "Decimal" system of weights and measures. That is what it is!In the United States, We can retain all the labels like liter, kilometer, meter, millimeter, hectare. etc. Now, think: The "Decimal" system of weights and measures.Does that sound OK? ...Parker Willey Jr.
