shiver - what a terrible mixture of languages. 'multi-' has got latin
origin, whereas both poly and mer have got greek origin, and I don't
think one should mix these. Please!!! think of a different _GREEK_

I didn't invent the term "multimer," it has been in use for some decades. And I am writing English, not Latin or Greek.
