"running dogg" wrote in message ... Was there a severe earthquake in LA in 1969? Or was the earthquake a parable for the Manson murders? The 1969 prophesy seemed familiar. I think it was one of those "Southern California slides into the Pacific" stories. The Last Day Profit of Gawd should know that a millimeter is LESS, not more, than a meter. But what do I know? (Wait, Steve...don't answer that. ) The Profit probably thought that a millimeter was 100 times a meter, not a hundredth of a meter. Q. What should the Prophet know? A. More than his contributors. I doubt it makes any practical difference if the Prophet knows the relationship between a millimeter and a meter. Always have a BiPap breathing machine on hand for times when you feel compelled to listen to the Profit of Gawd. Such incidences of interrupted breathing due to hyperventilation could be dangerous. That's an excellent product for all Brother Stair's currently non-contributing listeners. The Prophet could sell them alongside the radios, prayer cloths and satellite receivers! Well, since the vast majority of the Profit's followers are Americans, and products of the American public school system, I doubt that most of them have any idea about the intricacies of the metric system or even of geography. Most Americans can't locate their home town on a map of their state, and can't locate their state on a map of the US, AND can't locate the US on a map of the world. Most of them have only the slightest idea of the metric system-they know a 2 liter soda bottle and that's about it. It's really pathetic-I bet Canadians are better educated than Americans. Hell, MEXICANS are probably better educated than Americans. I don't know if Canadians and Mexicans are better educated than Americans. I have no doubt that America's poorly educated people are the richest poorly educated people in the world. These poorly educated people are just so many wildebeests at the watering hole for such economic predators as Brother Stair. Frank Dresser |

You missed by about ten years. It was the 70's. We were supposed to be
completely converted by 1978. It didn't happen for various reasons but superiority of the Imperial system was not one of them. On the contrary, the metric system is far superior in many ways. The biggest reason for the engineering community to switch to the decimal system was to gain the advantages of the metric system without having to change to unfamiliar units. wrote in message ...
