I put the following comment: Very nice presentation and excellent ending, but I thought that the lb is a unit of force and the slug is a unit of mass; on the other hand the kg is a unit of mass and the kgf is not used anymore and it is replaced by Newton such as 1 kg x 9.80 = 9.80 N that used to be the kgf.

But this one on horsepower is well done and ends by finally saying that the "watt" is the correct unit to use.
