No! Next thing you will want us to do is use the stupid metric system!



It is simpler.Count to ten and you've got it. 10 millimetres-1centimetre
10 centimetres-1 decimetre,10 decimetres-1 metre etc.







then show me all your metric ratchets, I bet they are all 1/4" 3/8" 1/2" drive




Don't shoot me.I'm only the messenger.I only re-posted this from another forum

The ratchets are probably 10mm and 12mm? I don't know.I'll need to check .
I just checked and they are 1/4",1/2" etc.drive Probably to honour the King who invented the system [along with bushels,chains,stone,furlongs,pecks, rods etc.etc.] I still don't understand why a US gallon[4 liters] was made a different volume to the imperial gallon[4.5 liters]which was there first unless it was just to be Amurican
and how come we all use the decimal system for money now and decimals for arithmetic[maths]instead of32nds and 64ths .
Whoa,too much thinking I better leave the cough syrup alone
