Well...there are certain times when I actually prefer imperial measurements. I also run CNC machines and I find it a little easer to think in thousandths of an inch. I also have no issue machining metric.

I understand it cost money to convert to the metric system and I also understand the metric system does not lend itself to the use of fractions...but this is a world we now live in based on standards.

My irritation is not about any specific system, it is about standards. The same goes for language. I can think in French but I have to translate from English to Spanish in my head.
I enjoy speaking Spanish with my friends here in Miami but I get irritated when I go to the drug store and need to have a technical conversation. Speak in the damn language of your money...lol

I am not asking for a universal language but I want to conduct business in the common language of the country with certain exceptions. What language do you think a South Korean pilot talks to the tower in at a airport in Paris, France?

We do not have an official language in the United States. And contrary to popular belief we are not the center of the known universe...lol
