Yes, I actually had the entry tests yesterday with chemistry as my primary subject. And the test was insanely easy (and quite imbalanced, those with mathematics or physics had a primary subject test three times harder than mine).

I know, I've read Muropaketti.
Btw, I managed to pull out some Valpuri-related stuff from your site directory - Is it just me or did you know of Valpuri before I mentioned it an aeon ago in the very first Suomithreadi?

No, I didn't - kudos for informing me about the wonders of Valpuri. I borrowed the idea to bring a bit of multi-culturality to our school's information boards, which had been flooded by ultraconservative Christian "You! Yes, you! You are going to Hell"-type posters.

Well you said "our english teacher" and here in Lappaland ours is plural and means more than one which is singular, so therefore there is more than one school in Sweden.

If you didn't get that our meant "our class", like the class I'm in, consider - those other fellows are of different age than me. How can they be in same class?

I wonder at the replies here. If I was forced to change my name, I wouldn't. I would leave Apolyton without a delay.

That is über-cool. Really, it is. I might even get an official position in the Church of Valpuri for this feat.

I'm really bad at thinking of screen names, so I'd use the name of a character from a book or something.

Nah, he is just showing off. It would appear to be the most convoluted way I have ever come across of describing an amino acid sequence. It's probably something quite simple like trypsin or something

A google search merely turns up two sites giving it's number of letters, and citing it as the longest word in the English language. I haven't found it's chemical name yet.

The longest word in standard dictionaries, however, still apears to be pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis.

Bingo. As Chowlett stated, I happened to meet this rather fancy (and unuseful) way to write the sequence down by just Googling for some page-filling words to show off here. Even I don't have enough free time to describe sequences so that they fill half a page.

It seems to be an enzyme called tryptophan synthetase, which (as you probably know, being quite more experienced in this branch of science than I am) catalyzes the formation of tryptophan by uniting serine and indole.

BTW, it seems to be that my original word monster was not even the longest (and probably one of the most unpronounciable) word there is; NADP specific glutamate hydrogenase can be deciphered to an even longer word.
