Also, stop with your "funny-dates". YYYY-MM-DD is the ONLY correct way to type dates. STANDARDS!
Haha, I certainly agree that it is appropriate here, but MM-DD-YYYY is the U.S. standard and I will continue to use it when appropriate.
Are you only trying to get USians to switch to mBTC?
It's like how everyone got obsessed with the metric system: It works great for special fields but sucks for everyday use.
Seriously? As compared to the English system, where no one can remember all the conversions?
The problem with the metric system is that the base measurements were poorly chosen, and the system isn't a huge improvement to begin with.
Standard units are just so convenient. Why is a meter so darn huge and a gram so small?
Is it really that hard to remember a few simple ratios?
Besides the mile, 5,280 feet, it's all simple. As for celsius, do we really need a whole new system just to make it easier to remember the temperatures at which water boils and freezes? Really? 32, 212, that simple!
I guess I don't know why I don't like metric, I just don't.
Why fix what isn't broken? No one complains that there are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, 30-31 days in a month, and 365 days in a year. Life is full of things you have to remember.
--- ANYWAY, we all have preferences and I for one will remain 6 feet tall and 135 lbs instead of 1.288 Meters and 61,235 grams. Back on topic.
