"Metric System" poll


I use the "metric" system...

All the time...1

Never...1

Infrequently...1

I have forgotten how many years ago that the Federal Government mandated the introduction of the "metric system". It is still around on many products but it has failed: Restraining orders are measured in feet, weather persons always use Fahrenheit, gasoline is sold by gallons, and meat, fruit, and vegetables are sold by the pound. And the NFL will never use the metric system.
