John,

I already confessed by error.  Call it "shame" if you please.
You are the only one so far to have reported my embarrassing error.

At the moment I realized I had made the error, I was scooping horse manure,
another appropriate term, among others, for my error.  Cleaning a stable
is an activity conducive to thought about more serious matters such as
effective ways to promote SI with a minimum of confusion and errors.

Thanks for reporting the necessary correction; W for watt, Wb for weber.

Gene.
