I received this email from MoveOn.org asking for a specific issue to
address, and I responded by clicking the link and asking Steven Chu, the
secretary of the DOE, to start REAL progress on officially moving
America to full adoption of SI with a fixed timetable. Maybe of MoveOn
gets a lot of these something may come of it. Some of us may not like
MoveOn, but this may be a way to get something rolling. Maybe some
other official should be the target instead of Chu.

Dear MoveOn member,
If you're like most MoveOn members I know, there's a particular issue
that you wish MoveOn would work on.
Maybe it's a big corporation that's up to no good. An important piece of
legislation that's languishing in Congress for lack of public attention.
Or a local Republican official who's done something patently outrageous.
*But what if you didn't have to wait for MoveOn staff to get started?
What if you could start a campaign yourself?*
That's the idea behind a new website we're launching, where you can
start your own online petition and invite your friends to sign it. We'll
send the most popular petitions to other MoveOn members to help build
support for your cause.
To help get ready, we're taking a quick survey. *If this website was
available today, do you have an idea for a petition you'd like to create?*
Just click to let us know:
Yes, I'd start a petition.

No, I don't think I'd start a petition right now.

Thanks!
