Damn, too big again ( 1.26 MB )

Harmonization is correct, and is so for the greater part of those that
use Usenet. Your Olde English is just that... old. Outdated. Your
country should seriously consider catching up with the rest of the world,
instead of being bullheaded for the last 200 years since you got your
asses kicked out of our business.


That's rich from the country that still uses BTUs and all sorts of other ludicrous units.



For air conditioning, yes. Why say the unit is ludicrous? It is a
BRITISH invention.

I think you might have it ass backwards. I am from the USA. We use all
different units. Don't let your bias bend your brain. Ooops... too late.

So you still use pounds and degrees fahrenheit - not to mention 16 oz pints.
You're the ones (to quote your words) who are seriously outdated - and who have everything "arse about face".
Hell, even one of your space probes failed because the lockheed engineers used poundals or some such obsolete abomination -
maybe a slug - lol
