#"Pints, gallons, bushels, hogsheads, pecks........"#

Explanation:

Chemists tend to use #"litres"#, and #"millilitres"#. The unit proposed under the SI system of measurement, #m^3#, is an impossibly large volume.

In the UK, we tend to use #dm^3#, where #d# stands for #10^-1#, and thus #1*dm^3-=(1xx10^-1*m)^3=10^-3*m^3-=1*L#; and thus #1000*L-=1000*dm^3-=1*m^3#.
