R.W.Haywood states in his 'Thermodynamic Tables in SI (metric) Units' book that because kg is the SI unit of mass, the prefix 'k' can lead to confusion when working with factors such as 10^-3 as it would become millikilogram. "To counter this anomaly, a new name for the kilogram mass is clearly needed." R.W.Haywood suggests 'berg' as the new name for kilogram, and which will have the unit symbol 'b'. Please sign this petition to help this renaming become part of the 'systeme international' and end this confusion once and for all.
