_____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of John M. Steele Sent: 18 April 2011 12:16 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:50366] Alfa Romeo Readies a Stirring Stateside Return http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704662604576257300108686920.ht ml?mod=googlenews_wsj The author of this car review expresses strong advocacy for the metric system in the body of his review, but then goes on to use the dreaded "kph" and mostly Customary specs for the vehicle. He does express strong support for liters per 100 kilometers as a fuel economy measure. I have sent a note thanking him for the metric support, pointing out that "km/h" is the correct symbol, not "kph," and suggesting one way to show metric support is to use metric specs or at least dual units for all specs in his reviews.
