This morning, while I was filling out the forms for my first visit to an
oral surgeon, I had to give my height and weight.  The two blanks were not
labeled as to units, but I would have crossed out the WOMBAT labels if they
were there. I gleefully wrote in 1.73 m and 74 kg. Everyone was much too
busy to comment, but this is the first time I have had an opportunity to
quote my dimensions in SI units. We'll see if they notice.
