Decaday, suggesting: Decaday starting on October 05th thro October 14th -
World Standards Day be the TEN DAYS (including dates of correction to Papal
Bull) to promote this cause, when USA can lead the world bodies towards
*Total Metrication

That's as good an excuse as any to write one or more legislators
encouraging them to support metric conversion and efforts to remove
impediments to voluntary metric use., etc. Of course, ANY time is a good
time to do those things, but Metric Week gives us an "excuse" to call our
legislators attention to the issue. (It's also a good time to call school
teachers' attentions to metric and/or tovolunteer to speak to classes.)
