[Mario Butter]

It's used in virtually all scientific and engineering communities in
the US because it's a STANDARD. It's only among the civilians that
it's not used, and that's more from apathy.

And, I guess you'll have to inform a number of my college chemistry
professors (which included several doctorates and two who wrote
college level textbooks on the subject) that they were wrong.
