That is odd. Soft drinks sold in 2 liter bottles but cream and milk sold in quarts…

But replace it with 1.6km.
Thanks. I hate the metric system.
I get it, dividing by 10 is hard.
Not to worry though, the Libs are going to force it on America.
Nah, dividing by ten is easy. Trying to figure distance in kilometers after a lifetime of thinking in miles- THATS THE HARD PART.
And now every American generation gets to deal with that hard part instead of getting it over with within one. I still visualize in inches and feet, but I’m trying to get myself more use to working in metric since I took up 3D printing as a hobby.
I’m sure it has its uses and probably would be easier once you get accustomed to it, but you’ve heard the saying you can’t teach an old dog new tricks… It’s all I can do to use a fraction of the capabilities on this android phone without wanting to throw it across the room. There’s functions in this forum I had just learned in the old forum before it changed…
I don’t do change well…
I also think we should stop doing AM and PM and switch to 24 hour time.

I could go for that…
Glad I own a lot of horses.
