Thanks for your site…I was just searching for how ‘Googol’ was really spelled. I’d been meaning to look it up for over a zillion years now and have just had gotten around to doing it!! Now, I must go and find the origins of the ‘Powers of 10′ from IBM. Back to the past and on into the future… so long, SuperMarc
This is the very essential answer for me and my colleagues.
