Probably not going to happen tomorrow, but Travis proposes 6 improvements on today's systems:

(1) Dozenal counting. Decimal system lacks factors; 12 is the most factorable, divisible by 2,3,4, and 6. cf. 12" in foot, 12 hours on clock, 12 months of year. 3/4 is golden mean, packing, etc. Compare the system used by Mayans and Sumerians.

(2) Nue English Speling "NES". Drawn from the Dictionary of Simplified American Spelling, based on the fundamentals of phonetics.

Reference the 25 million functional illiterates in the United States.

Travis devotes half the book to the details of an "improoved speling convenshun". The attempt to fonetisiz speling misus the importuns of Meening which iz ofen suttly durivd from etimology.

(3) Calendar. Travis correlates days of the week and months. With the Raenbo calendar, the 5th of each month is always a Friday, and the 12 months are divided into exact quarters for each season, with 60 six-day weeks, with the extra 5 1/2 days as solstice and equinox holidays, with two on a leap year.

(4) Certification of Academic Proficiencies -- alternative to meaningless metriculation diplomas from "school". Not static, but upgrade-able, reflects tested achievements employers could depend on.

(5) Citizenship Ribbons. We provide ZERO positive reinforcement for "good citizenship" -- our laws only punish transgressors.

(6) "Religion" Circle: Two Truths. Travis seeks to reconcile Scientific and Spiritual "truths". Chapter on technology, chapter on morals, family planning. Of the OT Ten Commandments, 5 remain relevant, and Travis would add a new one addressing the weakness of those in authority. ( )
