2002-12-22   These groups have no power.  The BWMA was in effective in stopping the conversion of weighing scales in England.  Despite multiple court cases, they lost each one.    The American really aren't a threat because there is no metrication taking place. They basically write letters to companies telling those that have metric products to revert to FFU or their group will boycott the companies products.   John   ----- Original Message ----- From: Matthew Zotter To: U.S. Metric Association Sent: Sunday, 2002-12-22 14:42 Subject: [USMA:24174] BWMA F2M ACWM 2002 DEC 22 SUN   In reference to USMA 24168; the abbreviations BWMA, F2M, and ACWM were used.   Please tell me if I got the acronyms right. ACWM - Americans for Customary Weight and Measure (anti SI) BWMA - British Weights and Measures Association (anti SI) F2M - Freedom 2 Measure (anti SI)   Only BWMA seems mildly threatening, ACWM does not even have a web site.  Are there many other anti SI groups in the USA?  Do you think that they spy on us with this listserver?   V/R Matthew Zotter SC, USA
