Those 108 million people will potentially receive more than <b>7 Trillion</b> e-mail messages, many generated by automated software rather than people. We call it SPAM. Your share calculates out to about 64,814 a year or about 178 per day. We just thought that you would like to know in case you are complaining about how much spam you get in one day. Oh! And make sure you print each of them out. You may need something to read later today. (Not!)",

"So Just How BIG Is 7 Trillion?<BR>Lets say, just for kicks, that you want to count from 1 to <b>7 Trillion...</b> And let's say that you take your time by counting one number per second... That would take you thirteen million, three hundred fifty four thousand and seven hundred years.<br>(Hummm... Maybe you need to count a little faster?)",

"7 Trillion Impact!<BR>No other inventor has approached the number of the 1,093 patents issued to Thomas Edison, either singly or jointly. Telegraph 150, Electric Pen & Mimeograph 5, Telephone 34, Phonograph 195, Electric Light & Power 389, Railroad 25, Ore Separator 62, Cement 40, Motion Pictures 9, Battery 141, Automobile 8, Typewriter 3, Vacuum Preservation 1, Auto Giro 1, Chemicals 3, Military Projectiles 3, Radio 2, Rubber 1, Miscellaneous 21, for a total of 1,093 patents! It is claimed that today's commerce owes <b>7 Trillion</b> dollars a year to enterprises created by Thomas Edison. Edison was a <b>BIG</b> thinker!",

"So Just How BIG Is 7 Trillion?<BR>What if your yearly salary was paid in quarters?  Like... <b>7 Trillion</b> quarters... (Better think <b>BIG</b> piggy bank!) Now imagine taking each of those 7 Trillion quarters and stacking them up? The length of that stack would equal approximately 64.5 trips to the moon and back… Which would probably leave you stranded there on the 1/2 trip. (So remember to take lots of food, oxygen and Mt. Dew.) ",

"7 Trillion is Looking Up!<BR>Scientists estimate that there are <b>7 Trillion</b> inhabitable planets. All such estimates are approximations at best, because there are new systems that are constantly evolving and expanding at the speed of light.<br>Light be! Now THAT is thinking BIG!",

"So you want to take a take a trip around the world? <BR>Ask yourself how BIG Is 7 Trillion? What if your yearly salary was paid in quarters?  Like... <b>7 Trillion</b> quarters... (Better think <b>BIG</b> hidden wall safe!)  Imagine taking each of those 7 Trillion quarters and stacking them up! The distance would equal to 1,242.24 trips around the earth's equator. ...and THAT would probably leave you stranded somewhere in the Pacific Ocean on that last trip around the world. So remember to take a good life raft, it WILL be more than a 3 hour tour!",

"How 7 Trillion BIG Is Your Imagination?<BR> If you made 10 million dollars a year in salary it would be 700 years before you reached the <b>7 Trillion</b> dollar mark! Think BIG! Contact us first for any of your Internet Development Needs!",

"Are You Thinking 7 Trillion BIG?<BR>It is reported that there have been over <b>7 Trillion</b> divisions of testing that have been performed on the Pentium processor. Hey... Come-on! We want to know who sat there and counted every one of these? ...and how long did that take?",

"7 Trillion Impact!<BR>Thomas Alva Edison was a man who had great impact on all our lives. He was without a doubt the world\'s greatest inventor. At the time of his death he was said to have been credited with over 3,000 inventions. Of those inventions were 1,093 patents bearing his name. It is claimed that today\'s commerce owes <b>7 Trillion</b> dollars a year to enterprises created by Thomas Edison.")
