It seems to me that many who like the english system and dont want to change to the metric that they seem to think that the metric system is hard to learn, which is not the case. It is very easy for even for a person who is not very intelligent to learn the system. Scenists in this country now use the metric system, is because it is much better to use when taking messurement and all the other things they must do. I just wonder that the many mistakes that have been made in industry when they have to convert form english to metric, and maybe back again, and how much these misstakes have cost us. Why dont you want to start using the metric system? Because everyone else is doing it? Because you think that english system is better, when you dont even know what the metric system is and have not taken the time to learn it? I could understand not doing it because everyone else does it, this would be good case say if people starting jumping off bluildings or something like that, but if it is a good thing, there is no harm in it, following everybody else when they are doing something good or at least that is not bad. I dont see what harm could come form switching to metric system. If there is plz tells us so that we may know.
