Nonsense - originally from googol the number coined by nine-year-old Milton Sirotta, nephew of American mathematician Edward Kasner in 1920. The Internet search engine Google was named after this number. The original founders were going for 'Googol', but ended up with 'Google' due to a spelling mistake on a cheque that investors wrote to the founders.

Glad they didn't name it Godot. We'd still be waiting for our search reslults. Google = 10 to the 100th power. Googleplex 10 to the 100th to the 100th a number so large that it cannot be written. If you could inscribe every subatomic particle with a zero ( and a single one with a 1 you do not have enough matter in the known Universe to write out the number. I don't know what this has to do with meeting strangers, turning into bars and pubs or that little wussy Descarte but thought you might like to know if'n you didn't know already.

I went into a pub last night, it cost £2.00 to get in, and you could drink all you wanted for free all night, I thought wow this is great................,
    then I realised I'd gone into a swimming pool.

Jean-Paul Sartre is sitting at a French cafe, revising his draft of Being and Nothingness. He says to the waitress, "I'd like a cup of coffee, please, with no cream." The waitress replies, "I'm sorry, monsieur, but we're out of cream. How about with no milk?"

Nick all that proves is that Google, that famous spelling mistake is about 10 years old, a googol on the other hand is word brought into the discussuion to try and prove me wrong. This, as me three ex wives will tell you, is impossible.
BTW
My uncle used to love me, but she died.

Just as well you stay out of those 'Middle East' threads then, there's enough of your type in there...
