And those Americans are a bit short sighted.

I don't see it changing much. The push was on many years ago but it
seemed to have fizzled out.


I live in a dual world. All of my water people are metric, as is most
"science" and I still have to communicate with the rest of the world
so I am always making the conversions in my head. Usually for those
purposes I can just round things off.


Just to add to the confusion we have the sprinkler people with their
"funny" pipes and fittings. :-)
