Chris Keenan is off on travel this week or he would have posted this here by 
now, I'm sure. The appeals case by the so-called "Metric Martyrs" has just 
been handed down. They lost and the laws have been upheld as not being 
outside the authority of the law makers.

I'm sure that Chris will have an article in the next Metric Today, available 
to USMA members.
