A look at some of the metric system artifacts we talked about on Episode 18: Metric Mayhem.

The first is the International Prototype of the Kilogram (aka Le Grand K) in its Parisian vault under three layers of vacuum sealed glass.

The second is a road sign off of I-19 in Arizona which features 102 kilometers of road signs shown in metric. There was an attempt to change these to the usual mile signs in 2010, but local communities and businesses love the metric signs so much, that they rallied to keep them.
