Funny thing is, I've used metrics for most of my life, yet still refer to my height in feet. Also if asking a babies birth weight and they say 4.5 kg I don't know if that's big or not, but 10 pounds, that's big.

Also pilots still refer speed to knots and height as feet, even in metric nations. I don't think we will every completely change over.

It would be nice if at least the distances were modified to metric if nothing else.
