Dodge Co, Wi
I'm pretty sure us Canadians here should be included with you guys in the antiquated imperial/us system group ;)
I'm 25 and I measure mileage, in miles to the gallon (imp), I'm 6' tall, 175#, however I do drive at 50km/h in the city 100km/h on the highway.

A note also, I did a delayed basis contract on some July/07 wheat with the local elevator, booked a ton(my words) at 4.10 and another ton at 4.30, so 50 tons right?....well, at the elevator they took my ton to be a tonne (pronounced tone, or metric ton) and so now I have 50,000 kg booked instead of the 100,000# that I had figured, silly me I forgot to double check it on the contract so it's half my fault but still, that's an extra 10,230# I've got booked now. Damn us Canadians and using all the measuring systems.
