I would love to see the US use the metric system. Unfortunately, there is too much popular resistance from the general public. Like all Americans in technical or scientific occupations, I work comfortably in any mathematical system.

There was an effort years ago to switch to metric but it was voted down. It would require a Constitutional amendment.


Seriously? Isn't that taking the US's worship of an outdated document just a little too far?
