I know we were just converting over. I guess that was like 1970 or a little bit before 1970. And the schools were really switching over to everything being metric. Because Canada isn't always metric. I mean the old English system didn't. But they were changing all the signs over. You know, 60 kilometers per hour. That type of thing. That was going on when I was, I don't know, six or seven. Something like that. Yeah, we switched from the European, or from the British imperial system to the metric system. I was lucky enough, I was in the grades that had to learn both. So now my head is mixed up. I do certain things like length of wood and size of furniture. Anything that way, height and weight of people in imperial. But then anything I'm doing for building or electronics, it's all in metric. Anything for distance. I say miles, but then I give out kilometers. It's just a mix in my head. But then my kids learn nothing but metric. And if you mention a pound or a mile, they have no clue what it is.
