60 is good because you can divide it by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 which is convenient

I'll switch to metric when we adopt dozenal numbers, and not a moment sooner

Compared to 100 which can only be divided by 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20, 25, 50. Not too bad, but not as good.

yeah, lets all start counting in base-60

I'll start by counting to ten
