Brian, if you are referring to the political bend of those forums, then you are giving me the chance to reiterate the following.
Metrication is a non-partisan national goal. All people, no matter which side of the aisle they occupy and no matter what color state they live in on the ideological map, measure things. Genuine metrication wil be a truly national project, affecting every citizen and every institution the citizen uses. Those of us who support U.S. metrication should address it anywhere it is discussed. It is all the more important to do this right now, because the silence on metric is deafening. The more venues we have for metrication discussion, the better our chances for bringing it out to water-cooler talk.
