I signed up for the USMA list expecting that the main purpose of the list would be to organize some sort of pro-metric campaign. While I am very grateful for all the good work the USMA does and appreciate all the things I've learned reading postings to this list, the lack of organized political mobilization is still a bit of a disappointment.
If we could somehow redirect the fervor for a decimal clock into a lobby for organized US SI conversion, think of the wonders we could accomplish!
