MODERATORS
The one thing that bothers me about the metric system is how much of it is never actually used. No one says "1 megameter", for example. They say "1,000 kilometers". When you think about it, most metric prefixes are never used with most metric units.
I've thought that was weird too. Decimeter's seems like a good unit for measuring a person's height, for instance.
