Author Topic: 7-foot long scratchbuilt USS Enterprise AndrewR Resident Nut-cache Member # 44 posted                       Wouldn't that be a 700/1 scale model of a nanite? Would that be a macrite? Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged TSN I'm... from Earth. Member # 31 posted                       A 1/700-scale model would not be a 700/1-scale model, no.

Hence macrite and the smiley face. -------------------- "Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica." - Jim Halpert.

Member # 31 posted                       Well, I would also think that the opposite of a nanite ought to be a gigite... Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged AndrewR Resident Nut-cache Member # 44 posted                       Well, your just fuck'n marvellous - aren't you? I couldn't think of the prefix - and thought macro to convey size was still appropriate. Registered: Mar 1999  |  IP: Logged Cartman just made by the Presbyterian Church Member # 256 posted                       Well, no, since macro is the opposite of micro, and they're called nanites, not micrites. ARGUMENT DESTROYED! Registered: Nov 1999  |  IP: Logged AndrewR Resident Nut-cache Member # 44 posted                       LOL! nanites are microscopic - a large scale tangible version would be macroscopic... I explained I used this prefix to convey SIZE as I couldn't remember the prefix to use... I could have called them gigites yes - but I DIDN'T. Argument resurrected! -------------------- "Bears.
