After reading that page, and doing some computing, in which I wore out 3
calculators, 6 pencils, 2 bic pens, and an abacus, I came up with only 2
possible answers to the initial question.
It's either a metric shit-load, or a brazillion.
That reminds me.
A young blond woman was riding the commuter train and was reading the
headline of the paper the businessman next to her had open.
The headline read, 10 Brazillion sailors killed in ship collision. As
she kept leaning over to read the article the businessman finally
asked her if she wanted the front page so she could read it in a more
comfortable position. She politely answered, "No, but I do have a
question about that tragic ship collision"..."How many is a
Brazillion?"
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Shirley, everyone gets one on me.
