Well said!

Am I missing something?  I simply can't find any significant anti-liter 
statements or recommendations on the BIPM website, aside from historical 
references to high-accuracy measurements where possible confusion at the 28 
ppm level from the re-definition in the early 1960s might be significant.  
Can anyone produce the actual recommendations against liters that you all are 
talking about?
