Apart from about the metric system.

The company I work for uses the Metric system.   But its not like it matters,  one isnt superior to the other, its just what each country was brought up on.

Ever wonder why the entire world apart from you went through the trouble of changing from imperial to metric?

 

It's because in practical terms - especially for engineering - the metric system is many many times better.

Well from what is sounds like according to a couple of posters on here,  even the UK hasnt gone completely metric themselves having some road signs still in MPH and such. 

And you are wrong about the engineering part.   The metric system is not superior to the imperical system.  

We're, well I was and I usually assume that means everyone else as well and is still happening, taught both in school but that could've changed now.
