 Re: Imperial cf Metric
Get a grip, dude - it's called 'good natured ribbing' not 'stomp on someone'.
Lumber is called by its nominal size and not its actual size. Both are technically correct - a 2x4 is 2x4 prior to finishing. It's just confusing if you don't know that.
Precision in baking depends on how exactly you measure - not what system you use. Sifted or pressed makes the difference not cups or grams unless you measure by weight instead of volume.
We tried metric - it stunk. Everybody hated it. You couldn't gauge anything - you had to measure because a liter doesn't look like a quart.
But if it makes you feel better they sell soda by the liter.
