I have sent a fill-in-the-box reply to MSNBC in response to their question, "How do you like our Interactive Maps?".
Essentially, I told them that our troops operate in kilometers, most of the reporting is in kilometers, and that most of the world, including many Americans, use and understand kilometers. On that basis I asked them to include a kilometer scale on their maps, which so far seem to have only scales in miles. Jim -- James R.
