Actually MG means megagauss, a CGS unit (1 MG=1 hT). "Mega giga" isn't allowed, as it's a double prefix equal to peta. I also see that the pulldown has both "cc" and "ml", which is redundant. "cc" is an abbreviation and should not be used (unless you compile a C program). Pierre -- La sal en el mar es más que en la sangre. Le sel dans la mer est plus que dans le sang.
