Why? What is to gained by that?

Remember back roughly twenty years ago when the metric craze was brought on in this country by the metric crazies. Politician bought onto the craze. Highway signs were in both English and metric.

All gone!!!!!!

Thank God! It was stupid and cost a lot of money and no one liked it or paid any attention to it.

Furthermore, as has been previously posted, conversion calculators are readily available on the net and are very easy to use.

I was driving through Yellowstone National Park in June. At some point, we got stuck behind some jackass driving about 30 MPH in a 45 MPH zone. We both turned off to view the Fountain Paint Pot area. The jackass walks by and says in a thick German accent, "This is a national park, not the Autobahn". I replied, "This is America. We post speeds in miles per hour, not kilometers per hour. Learn to read the speed signs." 45 kilometers per hour converts to 28 miles per hour...just the speed at which the ignorant tourist was driving.

I always work metric. I abandoned inches/feet several years ago. The guys in my shop resisted but once the began to use it, liked it.

When I sold them the shop, they reverted to anglo dimensions however.
