Metric System

Help us change the world

 by: Paul Armstrong

If you've not heard, there's a site collecting ideas for ways in which people think we should change the US called "Ideas for Change in America".
As you know, using multiple measurement systems has a huge negative impact on our economy and makes education more difficult (instead of teaching our kids useful stuff, we're teaching them an archaic customary measurement system). We have the opportunity to fix this and give our economy a significant boost in these difficult times as well as making the future brighter.

I've just voted for this idea and I'd appreciate it if you could too as I think
it's important. The link is:
http://www.change.org/ideas/view/nudge_the_us_to_adopt_the_metric_system

The voting process is easy, just:

* follow the link above
* click on the box on the left that has the number of votes in it
* fill in your name and email
* send this email to your friends while you wait for the confirmation email to come
* click on the confirmation link from change.org
* click on the vote box again and wait for it to change color and say "voted"

The top 10 ideas will be handed to the Obama Administration on inauguration day
and there will be a national lobbying campaign run by Change.org and many other
leading non-profits to make each idea a reality.
