Re: SI units




  Allen Brodsky's (and Joel's) comments on SI units are not the first
  objections to parts of that system.

  Arthur Adamson wrote an article, "SI units? A Camel is a Camel" in J.
  Chem. Ed. 55(10), 1978, pp. 634-637.   Comments and a response followed
  in Oct. 1979 (Vol 56(10), pp. 665-666).

  John S. Rigden gave an editorial "Are SI units tending towards the
  ideological?" in Am.J.Physics 52(3), March, 1984, p.205.
