depends who you listen to, but for many of the US people I've talked to on 
the matter, the answer is an emphatic yes, which as a side effect will 
cause massive price inflation, isn't necessary, will require massive 
retooling of all heavy industries including the auto industry (sic), will 
cost too much and is frankly unamerican, useless and besides the french 
thought up the system in the first place.  Oh yeah, and personally they 
don't like it because it's confusing.
