Wednesday, January 09, 2008  Lawsuit Of The Day  It sounds like
Austin Powers picked the number. Someone in Louisiana is suing
the federal government for more than three quadrillion dollars
over damage from Hurricane Katrina. To put that in perspective,
there are 5 commas in the number ($3,014,170,389,176,410).
You'll need more than two forms of ID to cash that check.  For
some perspective, if you piled a quadrillion pennies on top of
each other, they would reach Saturn. On the other hand, if you
gave Mike Gravel a quadrillion dollars, he still couldn't be
elected President.
