To all USMA people,
        In the 6 July 2012 issue of Science there is a review 
of Network Interventions by Thomas W. Valente called 
"Network Interventions" about the process of behavior change, 
Vol 337 page 49. 
        Social networks influence behavior.  People can be 
influenced by their social networks to adopt new practices. 
I do not know if we in USMA have or are a social network 
but I hope some one can find in this review ways to get 
the US to stop using inch-pound units. 
        We tend to be technical people so we are probably 
not good with a social matter. So, please help. Let us 
know if there are things in this review that can help 
speed up the change to SI. 
                        Thanks.
                                Robert Bushnell
