Happy Mole Day Everybodies!
Mole Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated among chemists in America on October 23, between 6:02 AM and 6:02 PM, making the date 6:02 10/23 in the American way of writing out dates. The time and date are derived from Avogadro's number, which is 6.02×10^23, defining the number of molecules in a mole, one of seven basic SI units.
Many high schools around the US celebrate Mole Day as a way to get their students interested in chemistry, or as just a way to get out of class for a day :)

HAPPY MOLE DAY!!! Good times in Mrs. T's class! I'm glad you commemorated this special occasion. :)
Crumbs! I missed Mol-day this year! I remember celebrating mol-day in high-school! I kinda miss Chemistry and Avagadro...it was quite intriguing.
