Um, we do - well, Canada does, at least.  English screw sizes and
threads are more common, at least in the hardware stores I frequent,
but metric screws are by no means unknown - and a source of much
irritation when, say, you think you have a 6-32 screw and you find it
doesn't fit your 6-32 nut....
