Nice tag apart from it's gramatical problems...
101 should be "one hundred and one" and not "one hundred one"
Also, it treats billions in American and ignores British... so for UK sites
it'd be wrong
In case anyone is wondering, an American Billion is 1,000,000,000 (10^9)
while a British Billion is 1,000,000,000,000 (10^12)
Similarly, an American Trillion is 10^12 while a British Trillion is 10^18
The British version is seen as "Bi-million" as in "Million million" and
"Tri-million" as in "Million million million" - the further you take this
the bigger the different...
Strange but often ignored number fact...
