It is part of the SI system of units, allowing traceability to the highest metroillogical level.
The base unit is the Barry. 1/1000 of a Barry is a milli-Barry, or a Mung in common parlance. A micro-Barry is a Joe. A nano-Barry is a Mapou. A femto-Barry is a William. And a kilo-Barry is a Mullings. |
I would have placed Barry as being the sort of person who'd want to build a wall to keep nasty foreign SI units out of the country.
