Imperial Metrics

Be the change you want to see in our country.
In elementary school in the 80s, I was told I had to learn the metric system because the US would be switching over to it soon. Well nearly 40 years later, we still use the same random collection of measurement schemes and non-sensical conversions.
So I've finally gotten fed up. A couple weeks ago, I switched my phone, car, computer, and home thermostats over to metric. It's a bit of a learning curve for what a comfortable temperature is, but I'm adjusting and soon it will be second nature. And just today, Kathryne switched her phone temperature to Celsius. 1 down, 370 million more to go.


One person at a time. One measurement at a time. We can become the change we want to see... for the metric system. That's all I'm talking about. No other message here. 🧐😏😉
