Avogadro's Number is worth remembering, for mocking the pseudo-science
of homeopathy <URL:http://www.1023.org.uk/what-is-homeopathy.php>.

By knowing the scale of Avogadro's Limit – the maximum dilution of
matter before one can confidently say the solution contains none of the
original substance – one can look at the claims of homeopathy and
confidently say that it can't contain anything effective.
