Humphery, sir:
I'm still trying to work out what a "metre new" is.....
Considering present length of the Metre, Earth can be considered a
'hypothetical sphere' of radius 6371 km, with its
circumference:40030.1592786906 km.
Earth circumferece of 360-degree, then works to 111.194886885252
km/degree; and 1/10^5th of the degree could be usefully used to re-define
the METRE (New (m') as length unit:
1 Metre New (m') = 1.11194886885252 m
This can easily be TIED to the new interval for time (without changing the
existing face of 24-hour clocks) 24-hours x 100 md x100sd, each decimal
second of 0.36 of SI-atomic second.
With multiples & sub-multiples using (L=m' & T=sd), magnitude of other
units can be obtained as I have shown in my base contribution: The Metric
Second; V25 N4; 1973 April; Bureau of Indian Standards, New Delhi.

So you got all that then Steve?
