Nice to see metric units actually being used at the data collection stage rather than coming at them by conversion!

Good luck on your cario-health, Gene!

Today I had my annual physical examination.

The Digital Display of the electronic device for measuring my Body Mass was set 
at *kilograms*.

The Telescoping Scale for measuring my height was engraved mechanically in 
*centimeters*.
Of course, my height was then easily expressed in meters for calculating my 
Body Mass Index.
BMI = mass (kg)/(height (m)^2)

Unfortunately, I must now carry a Holter Heart Monitor for 24 hours to record a 
continuous digital Electrocardiogram of my heart rate, rhythm and patterns 
which showed some signs of irregularity.
