OY ! What's this Schotts business?  Your spelling is attroshis. Sounds like
you've been at the pints!  We're quite capable of standing on our  feet ....
er metres.... once we give up the pints, as long as you give us litres

PS. To the olde fart in Oregon, just imagine if you go metric you can
centimetre your way in your backmetre without a skilo on your face because
you discovered you don't have feet anymore.

Centimetre = inch
Metre = yard
Kilo = mile
