	Units of Measurement
		We measure the length of a race in meters, but the length of the long jump event in feet and inches.
		There are two systems for land measurement (one based on the yard and the other on the rod) and a third system for distances at sea.
		In this way, all the units of measurement Americans use every day are based on the standards of the metric system.

	Class Unit-Of-Measure in theory Physical-Quantities (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A unit-of-measure is a constant-quantity that serves as a standard of measurement for some dimension.
		There is no intrisic property of a unit that makes it primitive or fundamental; rather, a system-of-units defines a set of orthogonal dimensions and assigns units for each.
		Units are not scales, which have reference origins and can have negative values.

		Fractional unit, the unit of a fraction; the reciprocal of the denominator; thus, 1/4 is the unit of the fraction 3/4.
		Unit of heat (Physics), a determinate quantity of heat adopted as a unit of measure; a thermal unit (see under Thermal).
		The British unit of heat, or thermal unit, used by engineers in England and in the United States, is the quantity of heat necessary to raise one pound of pure water at and near its temperature of greatest density (39.1[deg] Fahr.) through one degree of the Fahrenheit scale.

	Concepts - Basic Units of Measure
		Units of time is a simple matter, things occur in a linear fashion and so a value of time is assigned.
		While on Earth we measure distance (and dimensions for that matter) in either centimeters, meters, and kilometers for the metric system and inches, feet, and miles for the English system, distances to distant galaxies is given in light-years.
		Measure of light-years and parsecs do not suffer the same confusion, but the light-year seems to be more popular than using the parsec.

		When using a measuring utensil, the ingredients should be even with the top of the utensil or the line indicating the correct amount, such as a 1/2 cup or full cup line on a measuring cup.
		British linear measurements are the same as linear measurements in the United States as are the measurement of dry ingredients in pints, quarts, pecks, bushels, and pounds.
		Liquid measures of volume are different, although the same names are used to describe units of measure such as teaspoons, tablespoons, fluid ounces, gills, cups, pints, quarts, and gallons.

		In the United States, both dry and liquid ingredients are measured the same way using the same measuring device and the same unit of measure for volume.
		Metric units of measure for length and area are based on the meter, which is slightly larger than a yard in the U.S. system.

		Clearly, without an external absolute standard of measure, there is no way to keep time or measure distance with respect to the marker because increasing speed is equivalent to shortening the unit length.
		Where space is shorter, the marker slows to maintain a 'spacetime unit' of measure.
		Therefore, the marker, travelling outward at unit velocity, will encompass 4 pi R^2 countable points per unit time and will have encompassed 4/3 pi R^3 countable points at any given time (where R is the radius of the present manifold in unit lengths).
