Probably not!
(I just have this huge list of logical choices that no one really dissagrees with but, when it comes to action, nothing happens!
In my nearly 77th year and still not had anyone I voted for elected either!)
And I still can't come to grips with XSI----mumble/grumble
>>Americans still don't want to realise how small a part of the real, measure up, world they are in maybe? (Having a dig!)
Brian several industries still use imperial as a standard regardless of their location in relation to the US. I'm not arguing that metric is not easier to learn and apply system, I am however citing the fact as mentioned earlier that every cad package I know of can swap back and forth the units with a couple of clicks so it is really a moot point. As for the Mars lander they were probably off by more than a decimal place to say the least and an organization like NASA should have a strict QA program that requires all work done to certain standards and they managed to launch us another $125 million into debt......
By the way the request at the start of this thread to be able to enter feet & inches input with the last " sign missing (like type 5'2 for the same as 5'2") has been enabled now since the Nov-21 v2 beta.
Tis a fun/silly world---NOW, do you want to see the list of SIMPLE things that I and my friends have solved to make all good?---It's so easy!
(To make the list!)
