Every precision length measuring instrument maker in the US has metric
lines as well, idiot. In fact, even though Europe claims certain systems
of quantification, the US was most likely the first with each new family
of more precise ways to make such examinations.

So, if you came up with the micron and made a tool to measure it, we
probably came out with a tool to measure it better, and then shared that
technology with Europe. That is just the way we are with our friends.

We were also talking about TAPE, idiot.

If I were measuring a coating thickness I *might* choose to obtain an
observation in microns.

That is the whole point, SloTard... I know what to choose for what
application. You never could and never will, because you are no more
than a hard wired, US hating dumbfuck.

Except that you showed your true hand, because you were insulting the
US, not me.

In a right world, I would be obliged to come over there and erase you
and your spawn from the gene pool.
