      Plenty of Americans prefer metric. Scientists, technicians, bakers, hell even surveying is done with a metricized foot. That’s why height measurements of buildings and mountains are done to the tenth of a foot and not feet and inches.

    I’ve never seen Danny Devito in person. He could be over 6 feet tall like John Rhys-Davies in Lord of the Rings and everything is camera tricks to make you think he’s short.
