: : If I'm not mistaken the US got it's system of measurement from English kings. An inch is the distance between two knuckles of a finger, foot is a man's foot, and yard is either one stride or the distance from the tip of the nose to the tip of the fingers on an outstretched arm. I don't know where mile came from. Converting American measurements (like how beter to say a large number of inches) is like converting thousands of seconds into days, hours, and minutes. It sucks. Metric is so much beter and everyone knows it.
: acualy it was the king who inented it's foot length(the rest of it is based on that king too)
: and for the record, metric is way better
personally, i think we should all use banana's, 10's of banana's, and 100's of.... etc. etc. etc.
with banana's, you can measure weight, length, volume... banana for everyone!!
