Ok since everyone here is a fan of metric, can we also do away with imperial time? What is this nonsense, 1 minute has 60 seconds, but all of a sudden a day has 24 hours and a week 7 days? Why the arbitrary ratios?
Compare to how 1 metric minutes is 10 metric seconds, 1 metric hour is 10 metric minutes, one metric day is 10 metric hours, one week is 10 metric days. How many metric seconds are there in one metric week? Well 10000 metric seconds, or 10 kiloseconds, of course. See how the conversions are so much easier in the metric system?
