Thank you and I did enjoy it. Actually went swimming.....
Matt, I hope that was in a pool! Well, maybe back then the river was still decent. It's appalling that the city hasn't done anything remotely decent with the water front.

Yoctorare? I agree that doesn't sound nice....
That's actually 10^-24! Approaching the fractal limit. [:-]
Yup, a swimming pool. Water temp was chilly but after 10 minutes we got used to it. Egads...the river? Not on purpose

I know the series.... based on Greek and Latin but mostly Greek (I was born and raised there). Femto, -15,;Hecto -18; Seto, -21' Octo, -24, and so forth. In an earlier life, I developed and analyzed optical cables, microwave cables and differential pairs which occasionally required differences to be measured in Femtosecs.

It occurs to me that Octo is close to 1/Avogadro...(BG). But that 's way over the top....LOL
