George, et al.,
I have worked in CRM all over the United States for the past 25 years.
In all that time, and through perhaps 200 projects, only one set of
project drawings--from the Smithsonian Institution--were in metric. And,
of course, all of the land title and architectural data are in perches,
feet, and inches, or tenths of feet. English standard is alive and well
in the US.
