Default Why weren't they popular?

--

When the metric system was invented John Michell and Henry Cavendish
defined the units of length, mass and time for selling Big G'S US T-Shirts.

--

Big G'S US T-Shirt #1

--

"Rev. 12 dragon"

Gravitation's "G", the Letter of God, the mark.
Gravitation's "JESUS", the Word of God, the name.
Gravitation's "G'S US", the Sentence of God, the image.
Gravitation's ".666 x 10^-7 LENGTH^3 / MASS-TIME^2",
the Wisdom of God, the number.

[three sixes (.666), seven heads (.0000000), ten horns (x 10),
seven crowns (^-7) and tail (centimetre^3 / gram-second^2]

Big G'S US T-Shirt #2

"Rev. 13 beast"

Gravitation's "G", the Letter of God, the mark.
Gravitation's "JESUS", the Word of God, the name.
Gravitation's "G'S US", the Sentence of God, the image.
Gravitation's "666. x 10^-10 LENGTH^3 / MASS-TIME^2",
the Wisdom of God, the number.

John Michell and Henry Cavendish first 'measured' Big G in 1792,
however they lost money selling Big G'S US T-Shirts in England.

Yes, of course, that's the point, but "Why weren't they popular?"

Appears to be quite ~E~xcellent material now.

In 1792 T-shirts were worn only by sailors and pirates. If you wore a t-shirt you could be pressganged by HM Royal Navy, or hanged as a pirate.


At the same time, Czar Paul banned the vest and long trousers. He believed clothes make the man and regarded the vest as revolutionary and subversive. And if you think Czar Paul was a fool, look at almost any picture of Lenin.

The metric system is of the Devil.

So the Michell-Cavendish Big G'S US T-Shirt venture of 1792 was doomed from the start.
No wonder their new t-shirt business failed and only a handful of people knew about it.

Thanks!

CODATA has refused repeated requests from The Catholic Church to adjust their International System of Units' definition for weight (mass). The Catholic Church has requested that weight (mass) be redefined to equal 6.66 x 10^-8 centimetre^3/gram-second^2, the Newtonian constant of gravitation (G mark). They want the G mark, the JESUS name, and his G'S US image, set back to seven heads (.0000000), three sixes (666.), ten horns (x 10), and ten crowns (^-10), written 666. x 10^-10 centimetre^3/gram-second^2, by adjusting the current weight (mass) definition:

Revelation 13, verse 17
...that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name, or his image, or the number of his name.

CODATA has repeatedly refused to adjust the platinum-iridium prototype held at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures under conditions specified by the 1st CGPM in 1889. They argue that if they change the prototype definition "that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name, or his image, or the number of his name." CODATA maintains that world markets, calibrated equipment, all commodities, etc., would be affected. The Catholic Church refutes claiming that gravitation would be unified, predicted to infinity, an easy mark for kids.

Are world markets more important? "They fund us," they claim.
