The Metric System

[Angrist]

People are afraid of change. Just like we had to get used to the Euro currency (replacing our guilders). It takes a few years, a lot of people complain about it, but a generation later everybody will we glad they did it.

I really don't know. In college I had to do problems in the US system and the metric system for some classes, so I have no problem with it. I would just need to get used to using the metric system for everyday stuff, like knowing distances from places in terms of kilometers instead of miles.

It would be hard to talk about NFL in terms of meters instead of yards though. I don't think that will ever change, even if it's done in the CFL.
