Dear Sir/Madam,

PLUVIAL MEASURES

It seems that we are currently in receipt of record amounts of rain.

Whilst it has certainly been somewhat moist of recent weeks, I have been unable to compare precipitation levels with previous years due to the media's fetish for using only metric units.

Perhaps you would care to more fully inform your readers by converting to inches in future reports?

It is claimed that many younger people may not be able to understand these - but they can easily learn.

  1. Not only are you a dinosaur but you insist that everyone else in the world should abide by your archaic laws and measurements. Wake up pal. You're nothing but a grumpy old guy who thinks he knows better than anyone else - YET he demands everyone should make things easier for his simpleton mind!
