[USMA:32706] RE: metric system newsgroup misc.metric-system

[Bill Potts]

I notice that there are only two posts there for this month. I see some slightly older messages by Markus Kuhn, one of the prime movers in the setting up of the newsgroup, and our old friend Euric.   I must confess that, for lack of available time, I've ignored it.

I certainly don't want to suggest this at the expense of our listserver, but the newsgroup is a great way to share metric system views worldwide, and it is hardly being used. Just letting you know it is there, and is potentially prime ground for excellent global dialogue.     Paul Trusten, R.Ph.
