To give some background, I am a New Zealander where we use the metric system. The feet and inches are I agree easier to work with on a daily basis, and we do sometimes use them, and occasionally miles. But the integration of all the units is so much easier with Metric. A Joule is the energy lifting one kg one meter in the air. One litre of water weighs one kilogram. Area is measured in Hectares (about 2.4 Acres), which is 100m by 100m (by memory). E=mc^2 (with no messy conversion) It just is all so much cleaner in metric, and when you want to make your message clearer you can use the other conversions. Andrew
