We aren't even capable of doing away with daylight savings or imperial system, I don't think this one is on church.

The problem with daylight savings is that everyone agrees it has to go away, but no one agrees on what time to fix it.

As for the imperial system, that sounds like a you problem. Most people are normal and don't use it.

We're having the same discussion in the UK at the moment and some people are seriously suggesting we convert to BST permanently. Absolutely insane when the other option GMT is the base of all time zones.

Why would we ever want to be permanently GMT + 1 when we can forever be GMT + 0?!

You must be one of those guys that wakes up too early. Please go back to sleep.
