Someone out there thinks Americans are stupid. Or, that we are too slow. Or, perhaps that we are too skeptical. These are the only conclusions I can come to after waiting for a change in this country that was promised to us more than 35 years ago. I am talking about conversion to the metric system.
Recent trips to Canada and Europe had me pondering why the United States has not fully converted to the metric system. The United States still operates on the antiquated English system, something even the English have largely abandoned.
