Good luck! I wrote to them a couple of times but that was several years
ago. Perhaps they've noticed more metric units around and about them in
the real world since then.
Beyond "thanks" AP's responses to me were along the lines of waiting
until the U.S., especially the government, decided to go metric. Yes,
this despite my providing applicable supporting documentation, much of
it from the federal government.

Can you find an address of someone at AP to write to to get this changed?

By Googling "AP address" I found this:
http://www.ap.org/pages/contact/contact.html
It was the first reference Google listed.
I'm planning on using the email address provided there ([EMAIL PROTECTED]
<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) to question why the AP Stylebook appears to
require most metric references to be converted to Olde English units.
