    You'd change the length of each unit. A metric second would be shorter than an imperial standard second in the same way that a centimeter is shorter than an inch.

    I still think some circular unit would be better than 10. Right now, each of the 24 hours represents a 15° rotation of the Earth.

        Definitely one of the least arbitrary methods of measurement on offer.

        But I can understand the impulse to clean up the calendar.
