Philco or not Philco ?
#9

Well.....yes, we here are Imperial folks Icon_smile

In all honesty, me being from the USSR and having grown up in metric system, I do not find the Imperial one hard to use, and I can freely think and work in either (I am an engineer). In fact, I have gotten so accustomed to the Imperial over the first 3-4-years of usage that when I had to deal with the metric at some point, I found it less.....convenient. Icon_smile

And the beer always tastes better as a pint than as 1/2 litre Icon_lol

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
