[USMA:32290] Re: New metric legislation introduced

[Jason Darfus]

Yea, I hear ya.. a new Metric Board that has the power it needs to 
recommend and enforce change would be a terrific thing.  Representative 
Ehlers, if I'm not mistaken, pressed Sean O'Keefe (NASA) on the 
agency's use of metric units.  Ehlers is very pro-metric so if anyone 
in Congress would be able to push for a new Metric Board, it's him.
I've written to my representative and senators as well regarding FPLA.  
My representative was the only one of the three that responded.  She 
(Deborah Pryce, Ohio 15th) will be on the lookout for the FPLA 
amendment and take my thoughts into consideration regarding passage of 
said amendment.

In the meantime, EVERYONE out there on this list should buy the neat 
looking red, white & blue GO  METRIC bumper stickers (see my signature) 
and put one on your car, bike, jacket, posterior, etc.  Maybe even 
telephone poles or any other public billboard.  I want to see a GO 
METRIC sticker on at least one other car in my town by the end of this 
year.

Let's let everyone know they have a choice!
