    Let me put it to you in one sentence:



    When the world adopts American English as the standard system of speech, and ceases to use their own in everyday practice, not just business or foreign affairs, then (and most likely only then) will the States that have United upon the continents of America adopt the Metric system as its primary system of measurement for everyday usage.
