[USMA:36401] RE: The people behind the dismantling of the U.S. Metric Board

[Mike Millet]

I find it annoying whenever I read Popular Science or any scientific publication that has been dumbed down to use non SI units. You end up with such confusing units. I wrote a letter to PopSci encouraging them to use SI units when describing scientific things but no reply as of yet.

I always enjoy reading at least the BBC's site because it does do distances in metric first then possibly a non SI unit in parenthesis. I wish our news services would at least put both in there.
