The point is Americans are comfortable with millicuries. When necessary  such 
as shipping by FEDEX we make the conversions.
 
At NSSI, all units are converted to English units on receipt for  safety 
purposes. Our people understand millicuries and mr so why utilize mixed  units or 
strictly SI.
 
The U.S. made an attempt to convert the general public to metric by selling  
gasol;ine by the liter. It was a disaster. While metrics may have some value 
in  the technical sector, acceptance for the everyday person is centuries away.
