    It’s a unit of measure just recently added to the metric scale (grams). It’s 30 zeros after the first number.

    Really, really, really smart people thought it up and are convinced it’s very important.

    peace to you

    No, I don’t think so. Nonillion refers to multiplying the base number. This new measurement simply gives a calculated weight in grams.

    But, I’ve slept a few times since college, plus math no longer constant, so maybe it is

    peace to you

    Goetta - it’s like Scrapple but instead of using corn meal they add oats
    (lizard lips and chicken tongues are the secret ingredient)
