You can have all the legal extensions you want. But, if individual
companies and citizens don't want non-SI, then all the extensions in the
world aren't going to help US exports. And despite our present recession,
nobody is bringing up the lack of exports that could help reverse the
present economic situation.
Go figure!
John
Keiner ist hoffnungsloser versklavt als derjenige, der irrtümlich glaubt
frei zu sein.
There are none more hopelessly enslaved then those who falsely believe they
are free!
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)
