Quads should just be quiet and say nothing. Quads are not capable of making political decisions and discuss the subject. They should be more concerned with their feeding tubes, diapers and caths. Speaking politics might expose them to fodder as well. I wish both you and Jason the very best and hope you can protect Jason from further political and self improvement discussions from other boards as well. Maybe its just me, but I haven't seen a political discussion on this board since before December 2008, but you may have read different. Please also be aware that if people like Justin Dart, Ed Roberts, Judith Humann, Steve Gold, and Christopher Reeve has not participated in such lively political discussions, that your Jason might not have some of those Human Rights, that he shares today. After all those rights did not fall from the heavens in favor of those with disAbilities. Bless you darlin and Bless your Jason. Politics is involved in every breath you and I take.

For some reason when I signed up for this group I didn’t think Politics had anything to do with it, unfortunately they have lately. I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinion but aren’t there other groups online for sharing political views? Since this issue in this group has arisen I would like to unsubscribe to the group. Thanks for all your help now and then.

[QUAD-L] how much is a trillion ?
Following describes a Trillion ! To start, take a dollar bill that is 6 inches long, 2.5 inches wide and 1/200 of an inch thick. Two hundred of these stacked up would be 1 inch high. 700 would be 3.5 inches, 700 thousand would be 3,500 inches or 292 feet. 700 million is 3 1/2 million inches or 55 miles, and 700 Billion is 55 thousand miles - or more than twice around the earth at the equator. A Trillion dollars stacked flat against each other would reach around the earth 3 times. If we look at volume - a briefcase 18 by 15 by 4 inches would hold about 15,000 dollar bills. 750 thousand dollars would fit into 50 briefcases, 750 million in 50 thousand cases, and 750 billion would take 50 million cases. A 2,000 square foot house with 8 foot ceilings holds 16,000 cubic feet so 750 million dollars would take approximately 0.8 houses and 750 billion dollars would fill 781 such houses. The square mile where I live in Phoenix holds about 1,000 such houses which could just barely hold 1 Trillion dollar bills. A football field 300 feet long and 150 feet wide would need to be packed just under 400 feet high with dollar bills to represent 1 Trillion dollars. A silver dollar weighs 0.017637 pounds so 57 of them would weigh a pound. 750 billion silver dollars would weigh 13 billion pounds or 6.6 million tons. A Trillion silver dollars would weigh 8.8 million tons. A diesel train locomotive weighs around 100 tons and a Sherman tank around 60 tons. The carnival conquest luxury ocean liner weighs 130,000 tons and will cost 963 million to build, so a Trillion silver dollars weighs as much as 67 such ocean liners and would pay to build 1,038 such ships. A thousand seconds ago is about 20 minutes ago. A million seconds ago is 278 hours or about 11 days. A billion seconds ago was 31 years (1977). 66 Billion years ago Jesus was alive and a Trillion seconds is 31.6 thousand years.!! **A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
