Dear All,
I happened on this web site at http://www.edweek.org/ew/index.html and
thought that they might have some thoughts on metric system education
in the USA. However, a search for the words metric system (without
quotes) resulted in 4 references that referred to system and systems
and that used the word metric and metrics only in the sense of using
the right metrics or choosing another metric.
It would appear that the metric system has not been thought worthy of
consideration by these magazines in the last 12 months.
For information about who runs this web site go to

Cheers,
