Yeah i know Donald those conversions can be a pain in the rear end and it took me about 30 years to appreciate much of the benefits of the metric system but i am convinced that it is a better sysem particularly to do with money and temperature and other things. A cubic metre of water is 1 metric tonne and i think it is 1000 litres as well very simple. What really annoyed me, when they brought it in here was that they introduced measures of length in centimetres, just because it was the one closest to an inch. I worked for a while in SIE Division of Philips Electrical selling electronic weighing and process control instrumentation and we always worked in steps of 1000 ie 1 millimetre, 1 metre, 1 kilometre and even up to megawatts in electricity and this is how it should be. Well I guess we will never all agree on anything, we can't even all drive on the same side of the road. I have driven a lot on both sides of the road and I can't see how one side has any advantage over the other. Regards Ian; Kawan Island
