But sexy. ..

Seriously though, way-to-go Roygbiv for supporting SU! Coolest thing I have ever 'stumbled upon'..muahaa..




Has anyone ever worked in a warehouse? Meaning have you ever stood next to a full skid, let alone two stacked? I have and even after seeing a picture of that amount of money, I still cannot fathom how much is there!

Yeah, I have for about two years. The material pictured would fit comfortably in about ten mid-sized warehouses...but then again, most pallets in there aren't worth $100 million...

i'd be more interested in hearing a definition of a single dollar bill than a graphic example of the space that much paper takes in a warehouse.

then again you don't generate knee jerk political reactions when you toss out a question like that one.

I seem to becoming less and less fond of big businesses running our country.

So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about.

I would fill my swimming pool with that.
