Hello everyone,
My name is Mike Palumbo, and I just joined the USMA listserv, at Brian
White's suggestion.
I'm a huge proponent of metrication in the US, and if any of you read
Slashdot, I'm the one responsible for this nearly out of control thread:

Kind of shows you what we're up against, I suppose.
Let's see, just some brief information about me. I'm a software
engineer, and I do most of my work with 2 companies, one located in
Europe and one in Canada. All work is on a metric standard, so I find
the constant translation for my upper management to be excruciating.
My clocks are all 24 hours, my cars clusters have been replaced so that
they are only in kilometres, my thermostats are all in Celsius...I think
you get the idea. :)
I'm looking forward to some excellent discussions, thanks for having me
here!
-Mike
