Dear All,
In this column at http://jacksonville.com/news/georgia/2009-12-27/story/my_list_of_wishes_for_the_new_year
Terry Dickson writes:
I hope our president doesn't bow to international pressure and put the
U.S. on the metric system. We'd have to convert miles to kilometers
and dabs and smidgens to deciliters and centiliters.
Is this an important column that deserves a response?
Cheers,
Pat Naughtin
