Our "American" system was always referred to the English system in the schools 
I attended.

Rick: 
 
I myself THOUGHT everyone who had graduated from high school knew that the FPS  
units system was devised, over time, in England, NOT in USA! 
 
Calling the system “American” was never correct and had only become commonplace 
 
because we are the last place on Earth still using it. 
 
I guess I overestimated the education system…
