Had to go to google to convert to that heathen devil unit of measurement known as "metric". Sara is almost as tall as me, apparently, I'm 176.53 cm.
And yes... I'm keeping that .53 damnit.

5'6 here too, this pleases me. 1.72m is 67.72 inches which is 5'7" almost 5'8" sorry My sources all say 5'6 as well. Weird. But when I check the 5'6" it comes to the 167.74. It's magic!

Google translates it into 5.6 feet, which doesn't mean 5'6"!

I did use Google. That's what confused me. But I asked for feet and inches and it gave me 5'6. But when I asked for just inches, it converted to 5'7+. Very odd.

Had to google your strange foot and inch stuff as well. Why can't you use proper units (=metric) like the rest of the civilised world? 1.72m is 67.72 inches which is 5'7" almost 5'8" sorry My sources all say 5'6 as well. Weird. But when I check the 5'6" it comes to the 167.74. It's magic! My sources said close to 5'8". See, that's exactly why different measuring units are bullshit, nothing but confusion.

Google translates it into 5.6 feet, which doesn't mean 5'6"! But feet are made up of 12 inches, not 10 so the .6 isn't directly transferable. Better to think of 5.6 feet from google as more like 5 and 3/5s feet. I'm not going to do the math on it but I'm confident that's around 5'7"-5'8".

I just agreed with your post but explained it back like a smartass. Gotta stop doing that. I don't even have a good excuse this time not like I'm multitasking.

You can pry my freedom units from my cold dead hands! Also: Checkmate I'm from the US. But a lot of the stuff done in the space program was done with the metric system. Virtually every scientist uses it. And we use the metric system in medicine as well. So why not go all the way and suck it up?

Really, though, I think it's one of those things where it just never feels like the right time. Something bigger is always going on. Besides, it's worked this long and everyone these days basically has access to a conversion tool 24/7 (smartphones). Also... retraining an entire population is way easier in theory. But such a change probably effects systems us normal folk can't even begin to think of.

Reddit says IGN's preview is today (21st Feb). Well it's today here anyway. they link to this tweetIts Mass Effect Andromeda...so something to look forward to...but then its IGN, who is kind of the spawn of Satan when it comes to video game information... ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_MEA_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸
A preview is not a review. I expect regurgitation of known facts.

Also... retraining an entire population is way easier in theory. But such a change probably effects systems us normal folk can't even begin to think of. Yeah,. but there was soon big oops with the space program and a multi-national team. The Europeans were using metric and the US engineers used "English" strangely enough, it's called, and it cost a fortune when they discovered whatever it was didn't work together. So it can be a big problem in the global atmosphere we have. I have to use it at work. It's not that hard. The toughest for me is temperatures. It's a little harder to convert and I can't do it in my head. And yes, I have Google and a calculator. Anyway, back to TWEETS.

You can pry my freedom units from my cold dead hands! Also: Checkmate You need to colour the U.K in red on that map too, we use a horrible mash-up of both Imperial & Metric, although personally I'd jut prefer it if we used imperial only. Just my random thoughts.

Huh, thought it was 5'6, oh well stand corrected. Ha yeah, I had to google what it was because I can't mentally picture the metric system. 5'6" is still pretty tall! ,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸-(_MEA_)-,.-~*´¨¯¨`*·~-.¸
A meter is 3" longer than a yard. Now you know why in the EU and in Canada the preference is a longer unit.
