OK, I can't resist, I share with everyone what I have already told Art in
private: I don't think it is a unit. It is a new element in the periodic table.
Lyubimovium. Properties to be determined. Maybe it can be used for derivatives.
Hopefully it is a stable and long-lived element.
That is what you get for saying that your last name cannot...
Now let's get back to crystallography. I hope Mike Swan understands that he is
quite welcome to post questions again (provided that he does not ask for
acknowledgments that his e-mail has been read :-)

if an Angstrom is a unit (I'm told it actually was until recently, even with
a funny little o on the A :)) and the Becquerel is a unit, why not a Lyubimov?
MegaLyubimov, picoLyubimov, five Lyubimovs, half a Lyubimov all sound ok to me.

Aww, c'mon folks. Do we really need to haze the poor guy? It wasn't even his
fault!
For my part, I'm just glad I've got a last name not amenable to becoming a
unit of measurement. Whew.

Could be anything repetitive and overwhelming. For example, after looking at
stacks of crystal trays all morning, I can say "I got swanned." hmmm, maybe we
should try the detergent screen....

One mole of emails, as pointed out by Dan Anderson.

Is a 'swan' a (new?) unit of measure? And, if so, of what, exactly?
I kind of like it ;)

Ok, maybe we should stop this thread some time soon, is not just the mail bombs
that kill you, its the people that start shouting to the board about it. BTW, I
only received 35 Swans, thats not too bad!
