M (Marjorie): I agree with Brian's terms. This is statewide issue, so
as to Brian's concern of LC 44 being out of his district, no worries
there. Please advise me about next steps. Thanks for your support of LC
44. David Pearl www.MetricPioneer.com[1] 503-428-4917

M: OK with sponsoring this as long as it is done on behalf of Mr.
Pearl meaning his name will be on the bill back. I am not
knowledgeable enough to do it myself ... plus this may be out of our
district. Brian

Marjorie. Thanks for asking who will be sponsoring LC 44. I
would be absolutely thrilled if Senator Boquist would sponsor LC 44. I
initially brought this legislative concept to my government
representative Kevin Cameron, who got LC 44 started, then as you may
know, Representative Denyc Boles temporarily fills that position until
election time, when Jodi Hack is likely to be elected to represent
District 19. Our governor is a doctor and as you may know, the medical
profession all over the world, even in the United States, uses SI
because SI is much more accurate for measuring medication, so anyone
familiar with the field of medicine would be more likely to appreciate
the significance of this legislation. So, Senator Boquist, please
consider sponsoring this important legislation if for no other reason
than to save the lives of so many children who die every year because
their parents administer the wrong dosage of medicine for lack of a
consistent measurement system. Thank you so much. David Pearl

David,
Senator Boquist read over the LC0044 Draft and would like to
know who the sponsor is from the Legislature.
Thanks.

Dear Senator Brian Boquist. I urge you to support LC 44
(attached) for several reasons, including the following: There are
very strong economic and scientific reasons for Oregon to adopt the
International System of Units (SI). The cost of not using the SI is
increasing with the trend toward globalization.. Failing to adopt the
SI could result in the United States losing its competitive edge in
science and technology and in continuing to create bilateral trade
impediments with other countries. The cost of adopting the SI would be
quickly recovered by the economic benefits of global interoperability;
and this is particularly important as the dominance of United States
companies is being challenged in the competitive atmosphere of
globalization. Adopting the SI would likely result in the creation of
many jobs and better prepare the current and future workforce of the
United States to work in the international marketplace. Hawaii has
similar legislation pending (HB36). Oregon pioneered the Bottle Bill
and now several states benefit from that effort; so please consider
supporting LC 44 so that Oregon will continue to lead the way with
good ideas for our great nation. David Pearl www.MetricPioneer.com[1]
