Jon Saxton, & friends:
I don't understand.  Are you proposing to redefine the metre as an
angle instead of a length? How can that work? It is not even the same concept.
What concept *do you refer to*? I thought YOU may have followed the thread that I have talked for almost 3 years at: <[email protected]> and <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Several among my mails can be seen in the archieves.

YES, there is a positive need to link Time unit with ArcAngle (as Length unit, & via velocity of light).
Re-Defining: METRE (m’) – the New Length Unit
Why is it that the ‘Nautical Mile’ could not be shelved, to favor a more logical Nautical Kilometre? It is here, that I urge the consideration of dividing the ‘hour’ into 100 parts, and merge the arc-angle as: ‘1/100TH of one degree’ to become the Nautical Kilometre, and keep intact the clock face with 24-hour zones (each of 15o/h) on Earth, along with the 7-day ‘Sabbath’ cycle, the 364 day or 52-week year & a ‘leap week’ every sixth (6) year following the Leap Week Rule. Since most of the ready to use astronomical data is available, I consider time has come for taking a socio-scientific and politico-economic consideration of the ‘calendar question’ and use decimalised Hour- Angle in science and day-to-day life. This is no ‘metric’ as some friends have said! And, why not: ‘if I may ask, when this has a direct relation with the length unit, new metre (m’)?’ For comprehensive details, please refer: Shelving Nautical Mile in Favor of Nautical Kilometre; Proceedings of 3rd International Conference MMGT 2001; pp 164 thro 169; National Physical Laboratory, New Delhi; 8 – 10 February 2001. The 360-degree (o) to a circle and 90o to the ‘quadrant’ are retained. Like ‘hours & minutes’ on the clock face; each degree (in angle) has 100 decimal minutes (and each decimal minute has 100 decimal seconds) unlike the present 1o x60' x60". The Nautical Kilometre (decimal) works to: 1 n Km’ =1.11194886884 Km. Using the known value for the ‘velocity of light’, mean distance of Earth from the Sun is 1.3445587453 x 108 Km’; and the distance METRE, after correction, can be defined as: ‘Metre (m') is the distance traversed by light, in vacuum, during the time interval, 1/97059575.22TH of the decimal second’. Since‘1/100TH of one degree’ is to be the Nautical Kilometre; length distance METRE can be seen as 1/100000th of the degree. In Systeme Internationale d’Unites (SI) all derived units, dimensions & quantities can easily be derived by using: (1) time conversion factor, tf = 0.36, and (2) distance conversion factor, df =1.11194886884
CALENDAR REFORM
Yes, this is a seperate issue. I provide several options to choose ONE Calendar format of 364-days; and use the scheme of 364 VG Years (by moving just one day JULY 31 to February 29 & keeping December 31 OUTSIDE of the calendar proper (see distribution in signature lines - which may be remembered as a RHYME too). The Leap Day/Week plans are re-worked: (1) 4/128-yrs to place leap day between June 30 & July 01; (2) 7*128=896-yrs/159 LWks or 834-yrs/148 LWks on divide by six(6) scheme with additional *Keplers Leap Weeks inserted symmetrically*.

The yard did not become more accurate, it changed slightly. the yard is not
defined as 0.9144 m, but rather as 0.9144 m EXACTLY.  This means that it
changed from 0.91443992 m to 0.9144000000 m.
I have missed checking my INBOX for some time. Reverting from Metre to Yard may switch to disater. My providing a new defionition for Metre New (m') as: 1/10^5th of the DEGREE (Pi/180) has the potential to settle dust over the issue by choosing if we wish to call Metre New (m') and re-term it as New Yard (yd').
Will this blow Le Systeme Internationale d'Unites (SI) to winds?
