    I still see miles per hour when driving. I still see ounces at the grocery store. Good to hear that your child is learning the metric system.

      Every food/drink product I see at the grocery store has both US customary and metric units in use, e.g. all the 16.9 fl oz bottles also say 500 mL and I think all the foods are labelled in both oz/lb and grams/kg. I usually see things involving measurements in cm/m as well as in/ft, but not speed since nobody here knows what the fuck a kilometer looks like

        Sooo it seems like there needs to be a transition to metric.
