The title says it all.
I, for one, don't think we should, but I am old
I have a problem with a system that measures, car engines, refergrators, and milk all with the letre.
The US should convert. I got caught in the 70's push in public education to implement metrics and teach us how good it is. Having a need to use metrics in surveying, I saw it's advantages. It is hard to make mathematical errors. All mistakes manifest themselves quickly. You can do most conversions in your head instead of needing c***t sheets to remember how many onces are in a pound or in a pint and neither relates to the other, unlike in metrics.
Plus its fun going triple digit speeds on the highway in kph.
That's interesting, I thought survaying was one of the things that has a direct converson. Chains convert directly into acres.
