Wow. That is very disturbing.
I can't believe that on a thread discussing the possibility of putting politicians and porn stars onto US currency we have an argument outlining the benefits and disadvantages of the metric system vs standard system...
Somebody just got engineered...
Why is it that apparently only liberal groups get to decide whose face goes on a bill? I'd prefer Ronald Reagan over any of those who have been proposed. He did more for America by far than anyone who was thrown out there in the name of PC idiocy.
Reagan? Seriously? Would he be pictured asleep at his desk or reading one of the clever quips he didn't write? Guy was a Grade B actor and Grade D president.
The metric system is a system of measurement which was developed over many years, and traces it's origin to a 1585 book entitled "The Tenth" by Simon (can't remember last name), who suggested a decimal system be used for weights and measure.
Holy shit. Unbelievable.
