The countries in green that you see in the picture above use the metric system. Please adapt to me and stop using that incredible HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE imperial measuring system.

Signed,

The rest of the world.

Dear the rest of the world,

On topic though,

Dear USA,

If the you won't convert to the metric system, at least use the real imperial system.

Damn US gallon... a gallon is a gallon, why did you have to make up your own unit of measure and then give it the same name as an existing unit of measure.

And don't get us started on English (US)...

The other way of looking at it, if it wasn't for Americans reluctance to get involved then it would have been over sooner, thus saving millions of lives.

But this is a topic that could go down him very fast.

Sry as an engineer that deals with America regularly, this isn't true. I still get engineering drawings from the US in imperial and most American's I have given presentations to have had to, contain both imperial and metric units, because if I don't half the room have no idea what I am saying.

U.S. was in the war long before the events of Pearl Harbor and before it "officially" declared war on Japan, who do you think supplied Britain w/ war logistics aside from itself (ammunition, war vehicles, etc)? Who do you think placed an embargo on Japan in response to its invasion of China?

oh God, Lud's avatar is showing his true colors... and it's disturbingly disturbing.

As for the bagged milk, leave it to Canada to be "different" than the US.

I know the history.

But you can't argue the fact, the sooner America became officially involved the sooner it would have ended.

But I can see this descending into a bit of a mess, which I am not interested in. I was purely replying to the person implying that America saved the day (which they did to a point, but not in the way that he implied).
