[USMA:24123] kg replacement

[Matthew Zotter]

2002 DEC 20 FRI   A while back, we were talking about replacing the kg with something.  Although this will not happen for about 200 or so years, what do you think of the following?   Eventually (once USA has used SI for about 100 years), let's replace the kilogram with . . . let's say . . . the keg (meaning: one kilogram 1 kg = 1 Kg one keg).  I choose keg solely for the sysmbol Kg to look like kg since they would represent the same thing. one kilokeg 1 kKg = 1 tonne one millikeg 1 mKg = 1 gram   V/R Matthew Zotter SC, USA
