Metric

A universal measurement system contributes to the advancement of civilizations. Facilitates trade, defines the properties, determine distances and provides information essential to all human work. No job

not use the measures. The lack of uniformity in the metrical patterns puzzles. Because, see, how many miles per hour equals 60 miles? It is absolutely necessary to know so you do not saddled with a fine or a night on the town jail in some countries.

There is nothing more disconcerting to read a street light that the temperature is 38 degrees and you're shivering. And do not tell you if you go to refuel and 40 marks at the pump for gasoline as it spreads across the floor, if you're in a country that is measured in gallons instead of liters.

In some cases the conversion is easy, not exact, but gives you an idea: a pound is less than half a kilo or a gallon come to be about four liters. But there are other patterns more difficult to translate, as happy not to mention degrees Fahrenheit and surface measurements. How much is an acre?

Whites, as its them when they established a common standard of measurement in 1889, decided to go it alone. When the rest of the world gradually adopted the metric system was a definite contribution to standardization. The new measures displaced yards, cubits, leagues, bushels, ounces and all sorts of metric convention.

This universalization of the measures fostered trade, scientific research, engineering work and, finally, provided the relationships of individuals, companies and countries.

The universalization of the measures has come down to money. Do not see what the euro facilitates travel, the amount of inconvenience and formalities to be gone thanks to the euro. There is no need to change currency before traveling or do complicated calculations to determine if an item is expensive or not and, of course, do not lose the excess after the change is forgotten or change any pocket.

It seems, then, that a common measurement system is a good thing. However, this assertion does not appear to share the new values \u200b\u200bof television journalism.

thing should be substitutes and scholars, but so far this August, the news has been plagued by a new system of measurement: the football field.

Has there been a forest fire? For the burned area amounts to 300 football pitches. "Torrential rains? The flooded area is equivalent to 10,000 football fields. Is building a dam? For the irrigated area to exceed 100,000 soccer fields.

I do not know if aftermath of the World, if desire to give a sporty and vulgar, but at this rate will have to make a new pattern of action. And it is bullshit, because as everyone knows, the measures of a football field are in accordance with Anglo-Saxon system, ie, measured in yards.

I fear that this step will end up flowing to the left.
