I think it's a question of proud or something for the americans and brittish. Saw on the news several years ago about the fact that the brittish had passed a law were all foodpackages had to be marked with both kg and pound or whatever. Some old bloak was interview and didn't like it at all. He wondered why they had to adapt, after all "we won the war" he said. Which war??!
pick one, Egland has won quite a few, thanks to the help of a few friends
