Which is precisely why I am troubled that I am hearing nothing so far on this list or
from officials in the USMA about concrete plans to identify and lobby key resources in
Congress to pursue this amendment to the FPLA. It is likely the single most important
short-term goal this organization can have. If it fails to do this, I would be very
concerned about the usefulness of the organization in contributing in a meaningfully
significant way to the metrication of the United States.
