Hi Nat In the early nineties, the internet was 100 % English. But at the end of 1999, English was down to 80 %. So we can roughly say that 20 % of internet content which has foreign languages contain only SI while in the other 80 %, atleast 40 % of the websites which are owned by foreign companies contain SI only measurement. In all atleast 60 % of the internet content should have SI on a rough guess. This will change to 96 % SI as the rest of the World gears up towards internet usage, particularly with the growing Chinese and Spanish languages. Currently I dont have any website to prove the above figures, but I will copy USMA if I find any. Madan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Second that Bruce, I think that's a very catchy phrase! The Net is the one place where the 4% FFU run into the 96% SI on a daily basis, and you can see it becoming a growing flashpoint in the newsgroups. I think the 96% should arm themselves with catchy phrases like that. Nat On 2001-05-29 15:44 -0400, James R.
