Since AP Style Guide is to change everything to Customary, I'm surprised this snippet made it through: http://www.kare11.com/blog/hart_article.aspx?storyid=828025 "CNNMoney.com quotes Panjiva, another market research firm that claims that 3 million kilograms were shipped in the third quarter of 2009 compared to 1 million kilograms last year. You don't have to be a metric system expert to know that is a lot of sanitizer." Perhaps not ideal metric usage, but superior to 6.6 million pounds. 3Gg is too much to hope for, but 3000 metric tons would have been better.
