What is odd to me, is that the USA, severed all TIES to Britain, the King was a tyrant and despot, so there was a revolution.

In the mean time countries started doing metric, and now only the USA and maybe 1/2 of another country use BRITISH measure, called Imperial measure.

That's plain weird. Of course if we buy something made in the USA, like a car, they have to make it metric to sell it here.
