It still says “.5 L”, not “0.5 L” From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of [email protected] Sent: 10 September 2011 05:17 To: U.S. Metric Association Cc: U.S. Metric Association Subject: [USMA:51110] Re: decimal submultiple of a liter Well, this does look better than "half liter" since it avoids the use of vulgar fractions (even in word format rather than numeric format). But to my mind 500 mL is still the way to go. -- Ezra From: "Paul Trusten" <[email protected]> To: "U.S. Metric Association" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, September 9, 2011 9:07:44 PM Subject: [USMA:51109] decimal submultiple of a liter "HALF LITER" used to be the language on the wrapper. This Ozarka package of 24 500 mL bottles says it differently. Taken at Albertson's supermarket in Midland, Texas, USA. [image/jpeg:1000000198.JPG] Paul Trusten, Reg.
