Imperial measurements are okay as long as you don't need to do anything with them. I still say I'm 6'2", but if I wanted to do any calculations I would convert to metric before you could say light-furlong. I hate the way they quote big altitudes in feet though, because you often want to have a rough idea what height that is or do something with it.Comment
