I doubt it.  I've used the metric prefixes for years.  I've asked Conan (I think) if his use of M for 1000 rather than M for 1,000,000 is because of the gas industry and he said yes.

A lot of my commercial clients are billed in DTH as well.  We also do a lot of cost per therm analysis in putting together proposals.  I like it when I meet with a feed mill owner:
