[quote=Anonymous]If you were brought up with it, the imperial system is pretty handy for daily life. Fractions are convenient for doubling or halving recipes. Simple carpentry is easy with inches and feet. Of course, research science and manufacturing (esp cars and trucks) switched to metric decades ago because it works better in those fields and is global. I'm old and remember learning about The Metric Conversion Act of 1975 in third grade. It was a big deal! My future was headed straight into the Jetsons: flying cars, increased leisure time for all, the zipper merge! Oh well. [/quote]
