I grew up using the metric system but have since lived in US for almost twice as long as where I was born. I still have trouble converting feet/yards to miles, pints to gallon, sq feet to acres. What is hold the Americans back from adapting to the metric system almost the rest of the world?
Wouldn't it be easier to have one set of wrenches and sockets instead of two? Isn't a 10 increment easier to calculate than whatever we use now to calculate distance? Acreage?
