Don't misunderstand me. I understand SI reasonably well. I was one of the
major supporters in my company in the mid-70s when it seemed that the US was
going to make the conversion. I was on my company's team to define the issues
and impact on my particular engineering group.

Clock and calendar time are very deeply imbedded in our world-wide culture. I see no particular advantage in "forcing" SI into those areas. Can you tell me
how much time is passed if I say the travel time from LA to SF is about 20
ks?

Kiloseconds are pure SI. You don't understand SI?

I'm surprised.
