Platform,

10^100 is a Google, but I am wondering what prefix will be found to refer 
to 10^23 - as in Avogadro's number.

Platform,

Nanotech or picotech, if we decide to submit something to the Gazette, 
please do not do so for the next five days. I am trying to be third in line 
with a general piece on relocalization as a planning concept for the future 
that both helps reduce global warming and enriches community spirit 
(democracy). At my initiation the Gazette instituted an 800-word guest 
column with generic byline "Green Perspective". The first piece was 
standard boilerplate from Kunstler on peak oil, while the second was on 
sustainability by Catherine Miller of the Pioneer Valley Planning Commission.
