  1. There are 12 months but only 4 differend lenghts

  2. You use the same system, but i can convert pretty easy from km/h to m/s. Can you calculate from mph/h to ft/s.

  3. Atleast we can count to 24 and not get overhelmed at the 12

  4. Time is also funny metric because lenght of day and lenght if year changes slowly all the time

  5. In grand scale time is also relative measurement

  6. If metric is so bad why you guys use it when you need to precise

  1. Correct. Good job!
  2. I don't use the same system. Can you calculate "mph/h" (lol) to ft/s?
  3. Impressive! Good job!
  4. Time is not a funny metric. The way that we measure time does not change with the seasons.
  5. What grand scale?
  6. Who's we?
