I think the whole conversion issue is hampered more by tradition and laziness than anything else. It would take considerable adjustment for the American public (myself included), but I have still endorsed ever since I can remember.

It is just plain ridiculous that gasoline is sold by the American gallon, the Imperial Gallon (come on UK, you too!), the barrel and the liter.

Since decimal math is easier, let's just get the conversion done and over with!


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
