They still haven't figured out how to pack eggs efficiently in metric!

on a similar theme to the gag -

50 years ago this month, the Monkees released a single, a Mickey Dolenz track from their album, Headquarters. In the US this was called "Randy Scouse Git", but the UK distributors told Dolenz he couldn't call it that because it might frighten the horses. "you need an alternate title", they said. "Ok replied Dolenz, "Alternate Title it is".

Let’s hope not, otherwise we might once again be using pounds, shillings and pence.
