When is the world going to metric time? 10 hours a day, 10 minutes per hour.....
No more 4/4 time in music either. Gotta be 10/10!
Pi? We don't need no effing Pi! Pi will now be 10.

Howdy
We have 86400 seconds per day now - so going metric would mean we could at same time improve precision - let´s make it 100 000 sec/day
SO
1 day = 10 X
1 X = 10 Y = 2,4 hours = 144 minutes
1 Y = 10 Z = 14.4 minutes = 864 seconds
1 Z = 10 Q = 86.4 seconds
1 Q = 10 W =8,64 seconds
1 W = ,864 seconds
I leave naming of X Y Z Q W for you . . .
So our timing would improve some - from W down we would simply use mW and uW and nW and pW and so forth
The phrase "just a moment" would get new exiting meanings . . .
One problem arises immediately - at what we now call "skip year" there might be some interesting clocktweaking going on - naturally we might do it every new year and forget about skip years completely !

Actually on their homepage there is plenty of information in metric values - plus unless they are clinging to past, their machinery is operating in metrics . . .
Time to hit the hay - good night
