	"Nano" is the current buzzword of the advertising and shoddy science journalism industries. It replaces "digital" as the word of choice to make any drivel sound as if it actually holds great merrit. ex. "The rhinoceros, when properly cleaned with this new carbon nanotube-driven blue nano-laser, exhibited far fewer growths of damaging nanoplaque near its kneecaps, according to the Wooten Department of Nanotech Research."

	10^-9 fraction of a unit. 1 nanometer = 10^-9 of a meter; 0.001 of a micrometer; 0.000001 of a millimeter.
