Between 6:02 AM and 6:02 PM (time zone unimportant) every October 23 is MOLE DAY. WE celebrate the MOLE.
Im mixing fireworks in precise ratios because of it.
It appears that you are 12 minutes too late.
You're gonna stick them farworks down that damned mole hole, right?
Who is being honored? Rodents or traitorous terrorists?

Either way, the gunpowder will be sure to take care of it.
Traditionally, mole is served with turkey, called guajolote from the nahua 'huexolotl.'
mmm, mole . . .
All of these could have been possible answers , pronounced MOWLE. Think about Avogadro
A mole is always that amount of a substance which weighs as many grams as the atomic number assigned to its single molecule.
607,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 particles or so.
I hope your mole day was happy and full of memories of mole days of your childhood. Did anyone decorate their houses ?
What are you all talking about?
There really is a Mole Day?
I did not decorate for the Mole Day, because, being close to Halloween, it would have clashed with my witch and ghost display.
The Chemistry teachers of USA staretd a "mole Day" after the concept that edgar pointed out.The time and date of 6:02 (and then 10/23) correspond to the calendric equivalent of AVogodros number , which is 6.02 times 10 to the 23 power. Its a number that allows us to do rather precise chemical mass proportions and predict numbers of atoms involved in reactions, since atoms are very small.
Well, there you go! I just learned something new!
Thanks, farmer.
Yes, there really is a Mole Day & it isn't a designated day to celebrate a critter!
actually edgar deciphered it. I just reported on the holiday celebration all over chemistry classes in the US
I would like to celebrate Mole day, unfortuatly we do not have moles.
Are wombats a suitable substitute?
