Metric Bleh

Metric might be easier to use and make more sense, but come on. Metric is just a pain in the rear to work with when your using a fifty year old world war II surplus shop which is ALL english. And I'm a stubborn American who's goin 140? on the highway I wish.

Also out of the three bots i've built. Two were all english and one was a mixture. In those three years one was ranked 14th in Epcot and one placed second in New York. Guess which ones were the english bots. Coincidence, I think not.

And the end all to the Argument
"The metric system is the tool of the devil, my car gets forty rods to the hogs head and thats the way i likes it."
