Why do we use Fahrenheit when the whole rest of the world uses Celsius? Same goes for the entire Metric System? I was taught in the 60's that the whole world would be metric by 1975! What happened?:party: I think W should make the whole rest of the world change! At least then we would have a plausible reason for our wars!:dancefool

I was taught in the late 70's the whole world would be metric by 1985.

I think we are just too damn stupid.

That is a good point Koi! Okay, I could live with liters and kilometers, etc..., but I know what the hell 85degrees feels like and 22 degrees and so on and so on. I know fahrenheit is much better, heck Celsius 9/11 sounds really stupid!:party:
