Not arguing for either unit here - use what you're comfortable with and don't be smug about it - but Americans are ~4-5% of the world and even if not all Americans use Fahrenheit, people in other countries (e.g. mine) still do.

Sure, except in America agencies such as NASA and the Weather Service use metric because it's the proper measurement to use.
