About Avogadro

Avogadro’s Number and I go ‘way back. When I first started writing in what might be considered a blog precursor, a fanzine, I called my ‘zine “Avogadro’s Number”.

Named after Amedeo Avogadro, the original Avogadro’s Number has to do with how many atoms or molecules of a substance is in any given mass or volume. This number of atoms/molecules is called a “mole”. Why am I boring you with all this? Because the origin of this blog’s name is in the little cartoon mole I would draw on my high school chemistry papers, named, not surprisingly, Avogadro. My teacher was amused, but not any more inclined to give me an A than she had been before I started drawing my little friend.

My Favorite Quotes

We act as though comfort and luxury were the chief requirements of life, when all that we need to make us happy is something to be enthusiastic about.
