'Furners' complain all the time about our system here in the States. But I don't see any of em stepping up to the plate to fund us to switch over. Wouldn't be cheap to do the changeover. Everything from signs to schools to speedometers to any and everything in between. It would be a nightmare keeping it all together.Comment

Last time this guy came to the U.S., he broadcasted for all to see how he's weak to the body. Kinda doubt that's gonna do him any good moving forward in his career.Comment

I agree about the extreme cost of it all. I'm saying, they shouldn't have gone their own way with measurements years ago after the British left. They should have just kept with a common standard because there was no logical reason to switch.'Furners' complain all the time about our system here in the States.

It is what it is, and will always be that way here. We have infrastructure issues out the wazoo that need addressing, as well as a long list of other domestic woes to throw money at. Every prez for decades has nixed it any time the subject comes up. Now watch, Dump will ok it just to skroo things up even worse. LOLI agree about the extreme cost of it all.
