Today's issue of the comic section in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution
included the educational piece for children "Getting to the point of the
Metric System".
I don't know how widespread these weekly pieces by J. D. Harris of
"Shortcuts" are but I urge you all to check today's comic sections to see if
your newspaper carried this one.
He cites web sites for further information:
www.nist.gov/public_affairs/kids/metric.htm
www.cofc.edu/~frysingj/SIguidelines.htm
http://lamar.colostate.edu/~hillger/
http://metric1.org
I wanted to be able to send you all the site for today's piece but I have
been unable to do a successful search for it. Perhaps one of you will be
inclined to do so successfully.
