Re[2]: SI units -- observable and derived



     Thank you.  I thought that was probably what was happening, but it's
     nice to have it confirmed.  I'll feed back to the source so that he
     can make any corrections he deems appropriate.

     Thanks again.

What you are seeing is an artifact of people still working in Wordperfect
5.1 for
DOS or windows.  The special character, a greek lower case mu, or "micro",=
 as we
know it, when converted by Wordperfect into a ASCII text format for
distribution on
the internet or elsewhere, is converted by Wordperfect to this unique=
 looking=20
character "=E6" that you find on such documents.  This is very common in
documents=20
stored on the NRC servers, and simply will require a mental translation when
you=20
encounter it.

Hope that this helps.
