Medicine is usually measured in milligrams,  or spoons if ljquid. Soda and some other non alcoholic drinks are sold in liters,  yeah we still use pints and gallons too. Lots of tools are measured in metrics and in fractions of inches. Lots of popular guns are sold in mm measurements.The drug culture in America has been metric for decades. So has the military.Sure we still use old standard for a lot of things, I buy milk and gas in gallons, what's it to you? If gurps being in imperial bothers you you're just out a good system.  You don't have to dig at people who don't do everything your way. Makes you seem kinda intolerant.Btw don't pubs in England still sell beer in 'pints'?</blockquote>
