Misconception Interview

I was unable to get into a classroom and interview students to understand what misconceptions they have about the concept of measurement.  So instead, after seeing a clip on Youtube of some Harvard graduates that didn't know the correct reason we have different seasons on Earth, I decided to see how well my college educated roomate would do and see if he had any misconceptions about measurement.  What I found is that even though many people assume only kids don't quite understand things, there are areas that are still difficult for adults and that they still don't fully understand.
