The latter URL is due to change shortly, to what, I haven't decided. It 
should be up for a few more months.

A more complicated question is how to name chemical *compounds*. I started to 
try to answer that, couldn't find a good set of rafsi for -ane/-ene/-yne, and 
gave up for a while. But I did come up with names for some fatty acids; see 
the article on nuzban.
