Again, we have computers which just as easily calculate imperial and metric unit as both are entirely foreign to the hybrid base 2/base 16 computer processor. Therefore there is no calculation advantage to either system. The computer can even work with randomly chosen measurements in both schemes. Ease of calculation no longer qualifies as a basis for declaring the metric system superior.
Oh, and tomorrow I'll explain the reason for defining time by the rate of radioactive decay and for the mysterious leap seconds we seem to add at random times. I gotta get off this crazy cell phone screen keyboard before I go crazy!
