Hi all, I'm somewhat interested in the metric-only option of the UPLR, partly because there's a sense of progress. On some websites, you see Hawaii, New Jersey, New York and Alabama as the last 4 states not to adopt this option, and on others you see only New York and Alabama remaining. I take it this means there was recent progress.
Was this progress in any way related to USMA-led drives/efforts, or did they just sort of happen organically, as it were? Whatever became of the recent efforts towards New York and Alabama? I notice searching the mailing lists there were some calls for residents of their states to contact the appropriate people, eg. [2009], [2013], and also some meetings with officials [2011]. Do we have any information on what's holding these states back? (some sort of active resistance? inertia?…) Thanks (just curious), Eric [2009]: http://www.mail-archive.com/usma@colostate.edu/msg33182.html [2011]: http://www.mail-archive.com/usma@colostate.edu/msg39472.html [2013]: http://www.mail-archive.com/usma@colostate.edu/msg41379.html -- Eric Kow <http://erickow.com>
