** Caution: EXTERNAL Sender ** There has been no such "order" that I am aware of. That would be too minor a matter to deal with and would be contrary to existing law, as metric is the "preferred" measurement system in the U.S. I have heard Trump using metric measurements in his speeches.
Some anti-metricists are implying the metric is unAmerican, but we have heard that nonsense before. Metric was favored by Thomas Jefferson, was officially recognized by Ulysses Grant, etc. Whatever your source is, write a letter and correct ignorance. ============ On Fri, 2 May 2025, harry wyeth via USMA wrote:
I don't really belong to the USMA any more but seem to get messages anyway. Thanks. But maybe someone would like to respond to yesterday?s Wall Street Journal article about idiot Trump trying to order the kilometer signs removed from the freeway south from Tucson AZ down to Nogales. What next? Requiring auto engines to be designed in cubic inches?
