The question is....what are we doing THIS YEAR for 2010-10-10? :)
Dear Brian,
You might like to support the people at http://www.usasciencefestival.org
by visiting their displays as a metric system expert.
Or more nationally by visiting one of displays mentioned at
http://www.usasciencefestival.org/satellite-event-directory
One way of doing this is for you, with a friend or as a group from
the USMA, to visit the Festival events and to monitor their
implementation of The International System of Units (SI), the modern
metric system.
A few years ago I remarked on the implementation of SI at a student
display at the Royal Society of London where several exhibits had
used old pre-metric measuring words. The following year all, I
repeat all, were compliant with international units as checked by
United Kingdom Metric Association (UKMA) members.
Cheers,
Pat Naughtin
