Making the rounds on the webosphere is the fact that only THREE nations out of 103 continue to use the Standard (English) system of measure. The winning wieners are:
Liberia
Burma (Myanmar)
U.S.A.
All these years, I've lived under the impression that the US was leading the world with standards and their superior use of a system that, though it appears to be MORE complex, is SURELY better than that stinky metric one.
This puts it in perspective don't it.
'Merica! Gotta love it.
