John Kilopascal asked in USMA 23674:
No, I have not, but maybe someone else on the list has heard of the author
and/or the book. I'll do a Google search later to learn more.

John,
Oprah interviewed an author in 2000 on his new book "A Practical Guide to
Metrication" - his name was Francois Cardarelli - have you heard of him or
the book? It's in the Oprah Book Club.
Sorry I've got no more info as I did not see the program.
