Thanks for that, but I assumed that millimeter is an universal measure. Obviously it isnīt, while it still exists in the majority of the countries of the world. When will your part of the world go metric finally ? - Off course, here they also still talk in pounds (sometimes - but fading out), in deka(grams) in Austria ( = 10 grms), Zentner (100 pounds or 50 kgs) & Doppelzentner (= 200 pounds or 100 kgs), but not more in feet, fists, dozens, klafter, acre (we have ar = 10 x 10 meters = 100 sqm and ha = hectar = 100 x 100 meters = 10.000 sqm), no miles except GB, but kilometers (1000 meters), etc. ................................................
