      When counting it goes: thousand, million, billion, trillion, quadrillion, quintillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, decillion, undecillion, duodecillion, tredecillion and so forth until you get to infinity.

        Infinity (symbol: ∞) is an abstract concept describing something without any limit and is relevant in a number of fields, predominantly mathematics and physics.
        Infinity works here.

        :( There's no "bazillion"?? I use that "number" all the time when referring to "too many to count".
        Thanks for the info on this PL. Interesting!

          Tom, we don't have to worry about a national debt, Abbott dos'nt believe in spending, he just wants the country come to a standstill.

          It 's a shame really, Tom, Holden has produced a Commodore of World standing at last, what is going to happen to the Super V8 racing.

          After Trillion is quadrillion.   And 6 figures is not a million. It is in the hundred thousand range .
