What is a trillion and what is a billion depends on where the source
is.

Never said anything about TRILLION. I only wrote about what a BILLION
represents in different places.
iJones wrote "trillion". I wrote a thousand million was 10^9 and the
US calls that a billion. We are not the same person; only you can
manage to mix them.
In fact iJones has it all wrong because he seems to have counted the
cents as dollars and then got that wrong by a digit. OK, people
mis-read; but you seem to make a career of being wrong.
It's noteworthy that the mountain lion that got your other walnut has
no trouble understanding the thread. Must be where your brain was
stored.
