A TRIP TO HEAVEN  Shankar was the King's Chief Gardener. He had to work from dawn to dusk as the royal gardens stretched for miles and were an expanse of multicolored flower-beds, lush green lawns and clumps of majestic trees. His work consisted of sweeping the fallen leaves, watering the flowers, attending to young plants and saplings, rooting out weeds, raking the soil, manuring the ground and trimming the buss.
His cottage was in a corner of the garden from where he could always keep an eye on things. One night, Shankar could not sleep. He tossed and turned till midnight. Then, he sat up and casually looked out of the window. He could not believe his eyes! Suddenly his eyes were deceiving him! He looked again. In the silvery moonlight, a huge white elephant was quitely nibbling fresh green grass.Shankar was completely perplexed. Where could the elephant have come from? Besides, it was white, and Shankar had never seen a white elephant before.

What does one TRILLION dollars look like?All this talk about "stimulus packages" and "bailouts"...
A billion dollars...
A hundred billion dollars...
Eight hundred billion dollars...
One TRILLION dollars...
What does that look like? I mean, these various numbers are tossed around like so many doggie treats, so I thought I'd take Google Sketchup out for a test drive and try to get a sense of what exactly a trillion dollars looks like.
