Napoleon went mad and just one of the results of his insanity was The Metric System.

Of course everyone thought this was great and copied him.

However, you can't keep a good system down, and the system of UNITS is now coming back to life.

Now units are measurements that are chosen for their utility rather than because their inventor went mad.

So I have noticed recently that a new unit of measure is being used throughout the civilized world.

That unit is "The Football Field". So if you see something large being described by the media, it is never so many meters it is as big as a football field or even two or three football fields if it is really big.

So common sense is eventually coming back to life.
