Unit Definition (story)
The story is an informal unit of distance equal to the average distance between floors of a building. In British English the spelling is "storey" and the plural is "storeys"; Americans write "story" and "stories." Typically a story equals 10 to 12 feet (3.0-3.6 meters). The origin of this use of the word "story" is not entirely clear, but in medieval times a tier of sculptures or stained glass windows on the front of a cathedral was called a stor(e)y because it usually told a story, and the number of stories was a measure of the size of the building.

Unit Definition (attometer)
An Attometer (or attometre) is equal to one quintillionth of a meter, or sometimes denoted as 10e-18 meters. The origin of the prefix is atten, the word for 18 in Danish and Norwegian.
