That is a good video. Our politicians should be required to watch it 10 times. ....Parker Pat Naughtin wrote: Dear All, Why do people do this - http://www.eppo.go.th/ref/UNIT-OIL.html - to themselves?

This is where a lot of that trillion dollars a year goes in the USA each year (See: http://www.metricationmatters.com/docs/CostOfNonMetrication.pdf ) Remember this 2.5 minute video.
