Hello USMA Listserv members!

Last Wednesday (the 28th?) I read the science section in my local newspapper (The 
Oregonian) and was plesently surprized, while reading an article on baby fish in the 
Willamette River, that on a conspicuous diagram, listed the fish's length as 140 mm 
and then in parentheses, used inch-pound units. Highly unusual for a US newspapper to 
take the step, but a welcome suprize for the metricholic in me!

Go Metric!

-----Thanks!-----
