All I use at work is the metric system and it makes so much more sense.
Yeah, the actual Act was in 1975. There was some type of governmental group that was in charge of transitioning us over the metric system, but Reagan disbanded it when he was making governmental cuts. After the group went away, it was really only a matter of time before all hopes to switching over fizzled out.
