User:Greg L has been editing this article to deceptively make it sound like it is an SI unit (without actually doing so), when it is not. See the BIPM SI brochure, 8th ed. 2006, Table 9. Non-SI units associated with the CGS and the CGS-Gaussian system of units [1] Gene Nygaard 21:21, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
Greg L also tried to expunge the normal spelling of the name of this unit as "gal" rather than "galileo". That had already been fixed way back in 2005 when the article was moved from galileo (unit) to the current name. Gene Nygaard 21:29, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
P.S. I had nothing to do with the second gunman on the grassy knoll either, nor any other “deceptive” conspiracies to change the world in ways you don’t like. Greg L ( my talk) 00:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Why does this article state that the Torr is the SI unit of pressure, when even the Torr article states that it is non-SI? Perhaps it should be replaced with the Pascal. RossMM ( talk) 22:58, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
See Simon Stevin, who studied gravity.

I appreciate that non-SI units are deprecated in modern Physics. So, what should be used instead of microgals? Only "m/s^2"? Or can we use "nm/s^2"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.166.207.137 ( talk) 07:35, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
