My fault.
I mean I don't like the English/American system.
In other hand, the European(Other than UK and UK's past colonies) system based on, M, Kg is interesting.

21.7 whatever that means. Oh, it means... more burgers!

The international metric system is well described [url="http://www.bipm.fr/enus/3_SI/si.html"]here[/url]. There's also a nice explanation to why kilogram is the standard unit and not grams... I always did wonder about that. :)

Conversion? Well, I approximated a bit...

meters / 30.48 = feet. Take whatever is behind the decimal point and multiply by 12 to get inches.

kilogram / 0.45 = pounds. No other fishy conversion nescessary.

:D

You can also use [url="http://www.french-property.com/ref/convert.htm"]this[/url], although I have no idea how accurate it is.

EDIT: This thing seems to do mostly imperial conversions, so it doesn't work for US units... If at least the anacronists could settle for one version of feet :(

:D I just had a look at the javascript... It converts the feet+inches to meters and the pounds to kilograms before calculating the result :D :D

The formula is: weight(kg) / [height(m)]^2
