Where does the metre come from?

from This and that. A class podcast. Hosted by Digital Communication Skills

A metre is as long as 20 of my potatoes and my potato is as long as 10 of my rice grains. But these aren´t constant units to measure. This episode contains the historic background of the metre, where it comes from and the urgent question: how long is the metre really?
