RE: In science news : "Kilogram, Ampere, Kelvin and Mole will be redefined"
Only in Track and Field and road races do we Americans use Meters and Kilometers. Yards and Miles is the preference we use in length :) Not many people in the World talk about breaking the 4 minute 1609.34 meter barrier. It's breaking the 4 minute mile barrier. Personally the whole World should refer to length as Miles ,it just makes sense imho :P
yes, yes, it makes total sense that the whole world should change and not just one country lol :D And as for the record, no one talks about breaking the mile barrier because the official results are in meters, The Olympics are in meters ;)
