IIRC there were plans to add an option for converting units between imperial(US) and metric, at least in the garage, but it's still low on the to-do list. It would be nice if it could also translate units inside posts, say the post's author would have to wrap it in a command like [unit]...[/unit] or [miles]...[/miles], but I think that may be too complicated, if possible at all.
I've noticed in the last 6-8 months many new members from outside of the US and I'm guessing that the crowd is getting even more international (no stat option, but is there a voluntary
EcoModder Usermap).

The US is much younger than Britain, but it's the UK that switched first.
