Dear Bob,
Thank you for your very prompt
I notice how American editors contort news articles every time
something is measured; typically downgrading SI to parenthetical
mention, but this Yahoo article
http://news.yahoo.com/train-kills-37-pilgrims-eastern-india-103334145.html
from India three times does the reverse: . . . train
Associated Press article. The copy editor is following the stylebook.
