Funny the things I remember from elementary school. I don’t think the US will ever go metric. They were threatening to do so when I was in high school 50 years ago but we’re still hanging on to miles, pounds, and quarts.

Metric born and raised. Clueless as to miles and feet.

Only 3 countries still use imperial, being Liberia, Burma/Myanmar and USA. They should get with the rest of us. It was introduced in Australia in 1973 and we had a few years notice to get accustomed to it.

Leapfoot, I am equally clueless to the metric system. Hard to watch nature shows when they say, "It's 50 centimeters long or the temp averages 15 Celsius. Thank goodness for my smart phone, lol
