Metric vs. other measurement systems - chart

[mklotz]

I don't know this for a fact but in my musings on the origin of the phrase I've come to the opinion that the phrase "Hear, Hear!" likely is a misquote of the original phrase, "Hear here!" which means to me to call attention to something someone has said and it fits with its common usage in conversation.

Nope, it's "Hear, hear"; location, as in 'here', has nothing to do with it.
