Unfortunately, I am an American and did not learn the metric system in school. I am in the process of teaching myself so I will be in step with the rest of the world.

We converted to metric here in Australia decades ago, but when I was at school it was all pounds and ounces ... so I am familiar with both as well.

Marian Spitzig

Drug dealers and scientists got this one easily lol. Most SI units are metric. You get used to thinking in meters per second, nanometers, kilograms, Newtons, etc.
