Most of the recipes in net.cooks are posted by people in the United States. We still use English units here (cups, ounces, degrees Fahrenheit, etc.), and I'm wondering whether anyone in Europe is confused by this. Would it be helpful if I posted a conversion chart? -- Jeff Lichtman at rtech (Relational Technology, Inc.)

> Most of the recipes in net.cooks are posted by people in the United States. > We still use English units here (cups, ounces, degrees Fahrenheit, etc.), I think the term you mean is Imperial units, The English have been using metric units for many years, i.e. (Litres, Kilogram and degrees Centigrade). I hope in your conversion table you include both the Imperial pint and the US pint and how they relate to the US cup and spoon. Blame the fluid ounce. -)
