If I were King for a day, all inch rulers would have at least one decimal scale. 8)

- dekhn 4y agowhy not just convert everything to metric if you're King?
- mikewarot 4y agoI don't think people would get used to having a nice day being 300 degrees, and water freezing at 273.15. You've got to pace yourself in these metric conversions, tenths of an inch is something that wouldn't get undone the next day.
- sandworm101 4y ago??? Metric, not scientific notation. Water around my place greezes at 0c and boils at 100c, both of which are far easier to understand than any other system.
