Sounds as if you are a non-scientific type of person.

No, just the opposite, although I'm not a scientist. Perhaps I made my point a bit too sarcastically, or too subtly.

If I were a European, watching a television program which was clearly produced for a European audience, I would be offended if the principles of the program insisted on using English measurements to describe things.

Likewise, I find it irritating that the media in this country creates so much programming with dialog that expresses concepts of measure with the metric system.

I know that metric is a better system of measure. I just don't like feeling fuzzy when people insist on communicating to me with it.
