The Metric System

After a long discussion with wikipedia today I decided I'm sick and tired of hearing how "the US is the only industrialized nation that does not mainly use the metric system in its commercial and standards activities". So I went and made a rubygem to solve it. Or maybe I had a different goal, the jury is out after all, it being a weekend.

The Metric System (tm) is most probably an attempt to generate simple, quick metrics without any fancy reporting, or other bits. It is currently in early alpha shape at version 2.3.4.
