except that most of the generated units conversion factors could easily 
be buried inside equations where they are hard to spot with the naked 
eye...for example, this sort of equation can give you widely different 
results without the need for any units corrections at the connection level:

a [mM] = b [uM] + c [mM]

but would presumably result in (b*0.001) within the equation...
