And I thought "I" was the cynical one! Gee, guys, where is all this frustration coming from?
I think it comes from lack of leadership inspiration. US metrication has to be a cause, not just a task. The conversion of the measurement system used in the wealthiest, and putatively, the most technologically advanced nation in the world, will be accompanied by the groanings previously mentioned (minority rights? Hey, this was a discussion of metrology! I wouldn't want to debate religion here, gosh), but not if it becomes a campaign. So, I'll start. In the words of another New Englander, Alan Shepard, I want to stop all this arguing and light this candle. First, I'm going to Coca Cola, a company started by a pharmacist. I'm gonna be busy, so I'll be off the list for a while, but I'll be back. See y'all later. Paul T. Paul
