I didn't know that there is an attempt to redefine the SI base units based
on 1/10^5th of 1 degree for a new metre and the second to be redefined so
that there are 240 000 in one day.
Who is doing this and why is it being done? I thought the SI were already
defined to be absolute and not based on all or part of the earth geometry.
Why would someone want to change the metre and second when what we have is
perfect?
Who can I contact to voice my opposition to such a ludicrous idea?

RMD have 4 main units: Ryan Metric Years (RMY), Ryan Metric

Indeed some workable 'thought'. IMAGINE the chaos that THIS shall create
and the cost of change-over. AND compare with what I suggest:
Length Unit, New Metre (m') is: 1/10^5th of ONE degree (pi/180). Please
see:
http://www.the-light.com/cal/bbv_m-astrounits.doc and
http://www.the-light.com/cal/bbv_index.html
THIS when linked to *Decimal Second (sd) = 36% of SI-second* lead you to
NO changes in the foramt of 24-hr x100md x10sd i.e. 240000 decimal seconds
(instead of 86400 SI-seconds) during the flow of a day's passage. The
gregorian calendar need modification to the EXTENT of shifting just ONE
day (July 31) and insert in the month February as (February 29) during all
years. Read my signature lines.
The Leap Years can have the extra day at the end of June during
*div.4/skip 128th-year* on modifying the GREGORIAN 'century leap rule'.
After midnight today, I have shifted July 31 to February 29 during ALL
years and KEPT December 31 (outside of year format) as a World Day in my
VGRCalendar, that has been a topic of discussion with
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
Should arguments favour adoption of *Leap Weeks* to replace Leap Days, I
propose:
http://www.the-light.com/cal/bbv_bonavian.doc or my 834-year cycle/148
Leap weeks.
that I have 'advocated since 1973-.....'.
It is THIS that I provide as the *Easiest, Simplest and the Cheapest*
proposal practically to COST nothing or 'peanuts'. It is the WILL to
implement and/or share that need be evoked; making 'METRIC REFORM' really
SI-metric based, since linked to New Metre (m').

So a Choi is either 14 minutes 14 seconds or 14 minutes 24 seconds? Guess
I don't plan to convert to these units any time soon.

To all Calendar people!
Last year, I created and owned Ryan Metric Date (RMD) and Ryan Metric
Time (RMT).
In RMT, a base unit is a Choi (Ch) that is similar to 1/100 of a day or
14 minutes and 14 seconds. I used SI prefixes for a Choi.
MegaChoi = 10,000 days (about 27 years)
kiloChoi = 10 days
hectoChoi = 24 hours
dekaChoi = 2 h 24 min
Choi = 14 min 24 s
deciChoi = 86.4 seconds
centiChoi = 8.64 seconds
milliChoi = 864 milliseconds
microChoi = 0.864 milliseconds
It is aligned to UTC. 00:00 UTC is 00.0 RMT.
The suggested format is this:
DC.dcm nnn RMT
But the time string can be shortened:
DC.dcm RMT
DC.d RMT
Key:
D means dekaChois, C means Chois, d means deciChois, c means centiChois,
m means milliChois, and n means microChois
RMD have 4 main units: Ryan Metric Years (RMY), Ryan Metric Seasons
(RMD), cycles (cy) and grands (grd).
100 Chois RMT is 1 grand.
10 grands equal 1 cycle
100 grands equal 1 RMS
1000 grands equal 1 RMY
For units larger than 1000 grd (1 RMY):
10 RMY is 1 RM Dekade (RMDa) (27.37 years)
100 RMY is 1 RM Century (RMC) (273.7 years)
1000 RMY is 1 RM Millennnium (prulal: Millennia) (RMM) (2737 years)
There are also special units:
250 grd is 1 Ryan Shortyear (RSY)
300 grd is 1 Ryan Wink (RW)
360 grd is 1 Ryan Year (RY)
400 grd is 1 Ryan Super Year (RSPY)
500 grd is 1 Ryan Long Year (RLY)
The Epoch for RMD is Jan 1 2000 00:00:00 UTC as
0.00 RMD 00.000 000 RMT
(RSY 0, RW 0, RY 0, RSPY 0, RLY 0)
Today is 20.36 RMD
(RSY 8.144, RW 6.786, RY 5.655, RSPY 5.090, RLY 4.072)
