based on multiples of 10


i understand the theory of it.. and i see why on paper, it would seem easier.

but if you lined up 10 americans, and marked off 20 meters, and TOLD them it was 20 meters, then asked how far is that? 9 of them would say , "oh about 60 feet"..

thats what we know, and nobody wants to change.
