The official SI website is:* SI was created in 1960. The SI authority calls it "the modern formof the metric system". Of course, 'modern' is a relative word insomething that is 49 years old.* Like most standards, SI gets modified from time to time. Units andprefixes may be added, modified, or deleted.

The worst thing I have SI do is change the name of a unit.

e.g. kill off this name and put on a new name.

Serious not invented by my friends stuff.
