You make sarcastic and off-subject comments about
classifying people.

I then respond with a reasonable question. I asked
very plainly about the possibility of Andy's theory of
recruiting Rotary or Civitan or some group to devote
an intense year of making metrication the project of
the year. This week he is pitching Kiwanis and I am
making a pitch, informally, to a small group of
Civitan members.

My perfectly reasonable question is how can there be a
protection against any new-found enthusiasm being
stomped out if the new guys visit here and get a dose
about metrication being unconstitutional?

Why you think this question calls for sarcasm and
insults is too much for me.

Why not just answer the question.
