"Far superior" because conversion can be done quickly by whom? Idiots who grew up in front of a video game? American technology created the auto assembly line using the American measuring system while Europe was struggling to make horse drawn junk.The metric system is far superior to the English system. Conversion can be done quickly. The English system we use is outdated.
My problem was describing how tall people are.I wrote a science fiction series and stuck exclusively to the metric system and it created a lot of problems for me.
The metric system is logical and simple and has great apps for the science industry, but I have no desire to live in a world of newtons, liters, and pascals. Taken to its logical extension, there should be 10 hours in a day, and 100 days in a year.
I would say someone was 1.6 meters tall.
No one knows what that is.
Do you prefer to be 2.45 Gsec old?In 2050 I'll be 78 years old...at that point I'll be happy to convert to the metric system.
Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation. The arguments are with you.I wrote a science fiction series and stuck exclusively to the metric system and it created a lot of problems for me.

Tell me why an "hour" couldn't be 144 minutes long? Has nothing to do with changing the speed of the Earth.Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

As Konstantin Tsiolkovski said: "The Earth is the cradle of humankind, but one can't live in a cradle forever".Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

Such an global effort would require the power houses to work together, not against each other.As Konstantin Tsiolkovski said: "The Earth is the cradle of humankind, but one can't live in a cradle forever".Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

May be, it is time to broaden our horizons?
All building materials and construction is done with standard. An 8 ft sheet of plywood works with a 12,16, 19.25 and 24 inch truss layout. My opinion is standard works best with home construction.What's wrong with using both?
Aviation in most countries uses feet for altitude and nautical miles for distance / speed.
The British use miles and MPH on their highways.
Going back and forth is pretty straightforward.
Or we can unite the Earth after victory in WW III.Such an global effort would require the power houses to work together, not against each other.As Konstantin Tsiolkovski said: "The Earth is the cradle of humankind, but one can't live in a cradle forever".Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

Uniting nuclear dust won´t result in advanced space activity.Or we can unite the Earth after victory in WW III.Such an global effort would require the power houses to work together, not against each other.As Konstantin Tsiolkovski said: "The Earth is the cradle of humankind, but one can't live in a cradle forever".Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

Of course it will. Right now, we (humankind) have less than 10 000 nukes and more than 2000000 cities and towns. Undoubtedly, losses will be terrible, but it will not cause any sort of "Nuclear apocalypse".Uniting nuclear dust won´t result in advanced space activity.Or we can unite the Earth after victory in WW III.Such an global effort would require the power houses to work together, not against each other.As Konstantin Tsiolkovski said: "The Earth is the cradle of humankind, but one can't live in a cradle forever".Yeah, tell the earth to speed up orbiting and rotation.

Too bad for us that much / most of our vital links, roads, communication and infrastructure all go through or depend on those 10,000 cities. After destroying / crippling 10,000 cities, you ain't got much left.Of course it will. Right now, we (humankind) have less than 10 000 nukes and more than 2000000 cities and towns.

Yes, it will. The big cities, the industrial centers would be targeted. After the war, man will not be able to make toasters (or use them), let alone population transporting space crafts.Of course it will.
