I didn't see one reference to 250 mL in that article.  I just hope when the
FFU-ists claim that the 8.4 ounce size is a down-size from 12 ounces, that
we supporters can respond by saying: "Can't be!  It's 12 ounces downsized to
8.4 ounces"  Everyone is calling the can 8.4 ounces.  And 8.4 ounces is not
metric.

The other thing is to have an irrational 8.4 appear as the primary unit and
the rational 250 appear as the afterthought.

How utterly stupid!
