oh and to kind of dull his (the article's author) argument, we use a "metric" system for OUR money and anything that we cant make out into exact change, such as .567... we just round up to the nearest hundredth and it happens millions of times everyday and i bet most people dont even realize it happens... oh no, the secret is out! people are going to want their .002 cents back! you will find this happens with a lot of things, such as math class, they always tell you to round up or down (or atleast they used to... now they let people use calculators like 80% of the time and they do the rounding for you i.e. for something that would be 3.44444444444 and continue that way forever... the calculator would read 3.444445) so we already have the "solution" to the "not divisible by 3 problem".


Ummm, we don't use the metric system for money, the metric system has nothing to do with currency. Even if it did, how would it be the metric system? 5 pennies in a nickel, 2 nickels in a dime, 2 and a half dimes in a quarter, 4 quarters in a dollar, 100 pennies in a dollar, 20 nickels in a dollar, 10 dimes in a dollar, etc. The only shit that is even remotely metrick is how many pennies in a dollar and how many dimes in a dollar.
