To all USMA people,
In the 6 July 2012 issue of Science there is a review
of Network Interventions by Thomas W. Valente called
"Network Interventions" about the process of behavior change,
Vol 337 page 49.
Social networks influence behavior. People can be
influenced by their social networks to adopt new practices.
I do not know if we in USMA have or are a social network
but I hope some one can find in this review ways to get
the US to stop using inch-pound units.
We tend to be technical people so we are probably
not good with a social matter. So, please help. Let us
know if there are things in this review that can help
speed up the change to SI.
Thanks.
Robert Bushnell
