I agree, the metric system is easy/easier, but let's face it, here in the US dealing with both is the reality. The conversion program does so much more than just standard to metric though. For instance, I'm approximately 5.926744e-017, or .00000000000000005926744 parsecs tall. Well bare foot anyway. Probably .000000000000000061 or so in my boots. And let me say now, if I were a diamond at my weight... well, 464932.2 carats is nothing to sneeze at!

Man, I love this little app...
