Now, I'm geeky enough to have checked this several times, and I can say with some certainty that a zettasecond is 31 trillion years.


You may well have been looking for an exasecond, which is about 31 billion years =P

What does it say about me that I had to immediately check this?

At any rate, you're completely right. Thank you. I worked it out one jump at a time, and I was right up to 1 Gs = 30 years, but then accidently went up both a prefix and a value by concluding 30 Ts = 1000 years :(
