Blame President James “Jimmy” Carter. He started America on a path to the metric system but then just gave up. He wonders why he was a one-term president. Quote by Sheldon Cooper of The Big Bang Theory. But doesn't 88 kph sound faster the 55 mph? And you get in the triple digits on the interstate.

Canada went 'Metric' under the 1st Trudope......sigh....
Officially we're 'metric' BUT whenever a cop sends out a BOLO.. the guy is 6 feet 2, weighs 200 pounds. NEVER,EVER are the heights and weights in METRIC.......

I had a Buick Regal GSE that had the supercharged 3.8 liter engine and when ever I called/went in for parts from any parts store and they asked what engine size. They were usually confused when I told them one gallon, just one older guy didn't bat an eye and asked if if was a super-gallon with a smile on his face.

There's your sign! I think one of my neighbors would consider that a challenge, not a recommendation.

In the early days of converting inches of mercury to Hectopascals, I asked Winnipeg tower for the current time on their metric clock.

I had an old 24 hour clock that my stepdad got while he was in the Navy. I told the kids it was a metric clock.
