Exactly. We know both.Cecilo said:I really don't know what you are all talking about. Most the schools I visited on the East Coast of the US were teaching Both Metric and Imperial. Maybe you just want the change to come quicker, I don't really know, but the change is coming, slowly but surely.
I do think the metric system is better. I've often wondered this myself.
But what you've got to understand is that it's like a distinct language. If you could prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that English was superior to Spanish, do you think Spain would try and phase out their native language?
Instead, those of us with any mind to do so just learn both systems. It's not like it's hard. Once you know the Imperial System then the Metric System is a piece of cake. ("What? They use units of ten? Dammit... why didn't we think of that...?")
