What units should we be using for deltaG?

There was some confusion during the constant pH grant process about what units we are using here for deltaG. Til now we've been consistently using John's k_B*T units (which do seem to actually be R*T, see below). I'm not clear however, how we want to proceed with changing/confirming this within assaytools as a whole. Should we change everything to kcal/mol? or should we use kJ/mol (SI units)? or should we provide options for the user to output the unit they find most informative?
