Hi, I think in metric units, so almost everything is some form of a power of 10, like a kilogram is a 1000 grams, etc.

Sometimes I will think of an hour and half as 150 minutes before remembering that it is 90 minutes.

Does something similar happen to imperial units users? Because as far as I understand you don’t have obvious patterns that would cause you to make these mistakes, right?

        I mean, at least until the folk on the east coast row harder and we can drift into the Atlantic a bit more. Still have to navigate around Ireland, but I’ve a feeling they’ll scooch over and let us pass.
