Mole Day!
Yahoo! Today is Mole Day! It's a very exciting day for chemists! We're celebrating Avogadro's number - which is 6.02 times 10^23. This is the number of atoms in a mole of any element. The celebration started at 6:02am and goes until 6:02pm.

(Thanks to Chris for point out Mole Day!)

Updated: Corrected the spelling of Avogadro - boy did I ever get it wrong... Avadagro.
