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.
You know, when the %^&&! wave was supposed to hit?
For record; I know that I can get a rough idea of kilometers by dividing by nine and multiplying by five.
I could never figure out how I'm supposed to know if the hilo is a mile or a kilometer away when it's raining and the only reference is my thumb.
I know that a 650 Triumph is 41 inches,
and I know that Ford believes that 302 inches is five liters.
Guess that I'm OK with the metric system.
(PS: That would be square inches, and Ford also believed that seven liters was 427 inches, so I guess you could get more scientific if you took the additional time. Maybe.)
