[edit] Re your comments about the Cooling tower article on my Talk page

dbaugher: In response to your comments on my talk page, I did not write that section of the Cooling tower article. If you look at the History page for that article, you will find that, like most Wikipedia articles, it evolved as a collaborative effort by many different people. I would strongly suggest that if you feel strongly about the nuclear reactor section of the article, that you re-write it. If you are loath to get involved in that, then email me a revised section on nuclear reactors and I will Wikify it for you and put it into the article. You can email me by going to my User page and scrolling down the left-hand frame until you see "Email this user".

As for using US units, I know that the US cooling tower industry does not talk in metric ... but we are the only country in the world still using the US units. Wikipedia frowns upon usage of US units unless they are also duplicated in metric units. There are young engineers worldwide who have never heard of inches, feet, psi, or gallons ... believe that or not, it is true. There are also many university students in our country who no longer use anything but metric. Regards, - mbeychok 23:32, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
