Americans: Do you favor switching to the metric system?
December 28, 2013 at 6:32 pm
I personally wish we'd get with the program. The metric system just makes more sense and it would make a lot of things easier (especially for me, because I have a really poor intuitive understanding of dimensions and capacities). I also understand, to some extent, why it hasn't happened and why it seems unlikely to happen anytime soon.

I would really prefer that only Americans respond to the poll, but comments from the world over are quite welcome.
