Anu ideas why the USA hasn't changed to the Centigrade system?
Only a handful of countries use fahrenheit today.

Centigrade makes a much more logical system.
Centigrade: 0C is freezing and 100C is boiling.

Trained as a chemist, I have no problem with metric system and in fact
we should be using the Kelvin scale which took Celsius to start at
absolute zero.

In daily life I am more comfortable with Fahrenheit and old system of
English length measurements. The English did screw up the old Roman
mile by adding 280 feet to it and very few people know what a furlong
is. I know English do use metric today but may still give their body
weight in stones.

Heck, I thought everyone knew who Furlong is. ヽ(€¢€¿€¢)ノ

Do you fancy him? Eh?
