Mr. Finch meets his match in Silas Thorne, a patriot who thinks measurements have souls and kilograms are for cowards. In a spectacular verbal collision of base-ten logic versus "American grit," the two men battle over everything from the weight of a truck to the sanctity of the inch. It’s a hilarious, high-stakes dispute where tradition meets trigonometry, and neither side is willing to budge an inch (or a millimeter).
