Interesting! This is a step towards adoption of SI metric system in United States. The Education department must be active now in dissemination of SI down to students.

The agenda of the NCWM Interem Meeting (2003 Jan 12-15 in Florida) is now
posted at <www.ncwm.net/Pub15.pdf>.

Chris Guay of the Proctor and Gamble Co. continues as Associate Member
Representative on the Laws and Regulations Committee.  Recall that P&G is
already acting to promote metric-only labeling in the US.

An agenda item of the Board of Directors is increased participation in the
work of the OIML.  This might result in adoption of rules and regulations
in the US which would favor increased use of the SI in the US to increase
harmony with the more world-wide OIML regulations on package labeling.

Gene Mechtly.
