Next time I ***** about the cold, rain, snow

There are some things I'd just as soon "stay." People think metric is so "standard." Well some of it "ain't." The Japanese products have their favorite thread pitches, the French have theirs and if you try and stock a few bolts that just doesn't work

Pipe/ tube fittings. There IS NO standardization that I can see.

And at my age I'd still just as soon "think" in terms of miles, mph, mpg and not buy "leetrees" of anything.
