"Except in the United States".

If Americans are already learning two systems, cut out the redundant one.

Let's cut out all the redundant words in the English language too. While we're at it, let's cut out the fraction system, because it's redundant to the decimal system.

Not to mention when it comes to sports, the original Football is called "Soccer" in the USA as it has its own "Football."

	International	USA
	Football	Divegrass
	Handegg	Football

FTFY

Pineapple it, lets just go back to binary -- where things make sense.

Americans created their own versions of units and football so they could brag to the other world about inventing them.

[COLOR="green"]I am fine with metric with exception of driving.

MPH just seems better because I don't feel like saying I'm driving along at 70 when I'm just doing like 40 MPH.[/COLOR]

Problem:



Well... at least the United States of The Netherlands invented the United States... so it's not all wrong in America... :+)

Oh and big plus: At least they drive on the right side of the road too, like all civilized countries! (sorry British Empire lolz)

Because American scientist are all secretly hipsters and the metric system is too mainstream.

Founding Fathers were hipsters, it's official.

lol@ US being forever alone cuz oxford/cambridge education(british education in general) is more widely accepted.

Speed limit: 0011011000110000 mph

Speed limit: 0011011000110000 mph

Is that floating point?

Is that floating point?

It just says 60 if you take it in ASCII.

Engineers would love to switch to metric, except they're too busy dealing with calculations, yelling at contractors, saving time, and doing things according to standard. And get sued if they fail to do any of that.

[COLOR="green"]Engineering is done in metric.
Architecture is done in the other scale.

If you meant the scales, then yes.

Otherwise, I don't see what you're talking about.

Speed limit: 0011011000110000 mph

*111100

*111100

Mine's bigger.

[COLOR="green"]I have to make sure to change my units depending on which type of drawing I'm doing, or else I end up with everything borked and I'd have to re-draw it just to fix it.

Scales mean everything in the world of drafting.[/COLOR]
