When its used - either. Shoot me down but I'd concentrate on getting metric used/more popular rather than criticism of usage.

Thus, they (the editors) should be made aware of their faults. -------- Original Message --------Subject: [USMA:41643] AP's "kph"From: Harry Wyeth <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Date: Tue, September 02, 2008 6:02 amTo: "U.S. Metric Association" <[email protected]>Does anyone know an effective way to get the AP to start using km/h rather than kph? The online news constantly tells about the various hurricane wind forces as mph with a following kph in parens. Maybe it is better than nothing.HARRY WYETH _________________________________________________________________ Get all your favourite content with the slick new MSN Toolbar - FREE http://clk.atdmt.com/UKM/go/111354027/direct/01/
