With the remarkable events of the past few weeks and, especially
since Friday morning, Trillion needs to be reviewed; it is a very
difficult term/number for any of us to comprehend. But, we are
talking about trillions of dollars, in the short term, and it will only
expand/get worse as this debacle unfolds, imo.

From one of my earlier posts, trying to put Trillion into persepective:

-A Million seconds is 11 1/2 days
-A Billion seconds is nearly 32 years
-A Trillion seconds, is nearly 32,000 years.

Good Luck to All,

Glad to see congress at least kicked back a little in regards to a 700B Wallstreet bailout.
