Please get the Value Right

I see everyone writing mSv - but do they mean micro or milli Sv, because there is a big difference. It most cases it is micro Sv that are being quoted in the technical sites not milliSv. The letter "M" applies to milli, the Greek letter "mu" is micro but most people's computers are not capable of writing that.

So please ensure you have your units correct otherwise you are getting invalid answers.
