[USMA:37360] Interesting document on the NIST metric page

[Mike Millet]

I was looking through the NIST metric page for any updated information on amending the FPLA and found this PDF which was a business alert released by the NIST a couple months back..

http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/Metric/upload/Business_Alert_2010.pdf

The composer of the document seems to not be for or against metric transition but the document did a good job of summarizing the relevant information.

I found it shocking that several organizations within the EU are actually pressuring the EU to continue the use of dual labelling simply because US companies haven't switched, but I'm sure this deadline will not get extended once more.

Has there been any more relevant movement or information on the issue that anyone is aware of or is it doomed to a slow quiet death in a congressional commitee ?
