Well, one of the CNBC this morning kept talking about some 300,000 square feet
altitude. Boy do we have problems.

Well, yea.. it's the A.P. and of course they use American Proprietary (AP)
units, too!  Any news story that's a retransmission of an AP-sourced story
will usually only have AP units.  I try to look for CNN, NBC or
internationally-based stories as they'll usually have both units (or strictly
SI).
I was watching coverage on CNN and the ship designer, Burt Rutan, always
talked about the 100 km altitude they were shooting for.
