Is there some subtle joke in this ludicrous statement?

Oops, no. Should read...

.....but is not the US the last market on earth using imperial measurement?

And here we see the thread twist.

Please go back and reread what is being discussed.

No twist. You are likely one of those cowboy developers. My guess anyway.
Don't like processes that are repeatable and well defined.

Lets hope you never write code for something that results in life or death.
Or losing a billion dollar ship for a couple of bucks of structured software
development.

Hey Scotty, come up and replace this NT DLL or hard drive so we can launch
these damn things...whew...scary thought with a SU 30 or SU 47 coming at
you.

You really are an idiot. You have no business discussing anything technical.

You'll be wise to limit your technical expertise to how to turn on the
fryer to fry tacos at Taco Bell.

Now why would I want to do that? So I could get a job as a Microsoft
administrator?

At no stage did I say that. I use such processes. Please quote me saying
otherwise.

hate to tell you old bean but I have worked on just such. And under
tight, tight process control.

Why are you slinging allegations around?

The issue at debate here is this silly claim about "Loose MS standards"
and Hilliards ridiculous boasting about how he selects the best OS
*AFTER* he has manged these mega projects to completion.

Not really. its true.

Well we sell PETROL by the litre, Gas is sold by the cu ft I believe.

Well we did invent the imperial *and* metric systems.

French invented the metric system AFAICR.

Imperial was developed in Europe..hard to say that England was where it
really started.

The 'Mile' is a thousand paces..standardised Roman paces..

The 'yard' is how for you can pull a bowstring, or a bolt of cloth with
one hand to the body and the other extended..
etc..
