Subject: Dang the metric system...again!

My wife & daughters LOVE Extreme Weight Loss.  Last night they watched "Jami".

Chris the trainer said that the pool in Chile was 1.2 miles across.  Jami proceeds to knock it off in 31 minutes, with horrible form.  My wife says, "No way!  I swim way better than her and my PR is 32 minutes for 1.2."

Chris...the pool is 1200 METERS.  1.2 Km.

Americans!

If we were meant to use the metric system, we'd have ten fingers and ten toes.
