Good ....But are these Enough?...I Dont think So.

Salaam
Nice work. But dont u think that it would have been more informative if u could write the denotations also, like for Ampere, we have a denotation of "A". Anyways,its really a cool effort for something good. keep it up ! Take care Allah Hafiz |
go to [url]http://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/units/[/url] for a lil more units :)
