ok here. in canada, everyone still uses imperial for height and weight. weight goes so far as measurements of meat at the grocerie store too, but it's marked in both lb AND kg. our speedometers list both, though the MPH is listed smaller and less featured.
i'm 6'6", 198 cm tall.
i weigh 245 lbs, 111 kg.
not everyone is savvy enough to convert height and weight, and i'm sure most people here don't bother. we still use cups and spoons to measure dry cooking measurements, but we buy POP in 2L bottles.
we're half and half it would seem, but metric will have a imperial on us for sometime still.
oh raistlin is so right, metric time seems as ludicrous to me as a 12-hour system seems to people in europe.
