I'm sure that during the times I was away from the list discussion has occurred about millilitres versus the continued use of the term cubic centimetres. I feel that I have observed that people in the U.S., motorcyclists and medical, seem to find it hard to change their use from cc to mL. Does anyone else notice this? If so, I wonder if the same occurs in other English speaking countries who have changed or are trying to change.

"cc" is not a correct symbol for cubic centimetre. The correct SI symbol is ""cm3". The millilitre is the same size and its symbol is more convenient. It is "mL" or "ml".
I think motorcycles are specified in "cc", but I cna't say what the medical field uses in Canada.
