More than a boatload of money

You've heard the term, "a boatload of money' right? Well, how about the term "a plane load of money". The US Government sent 363 tons of cash to Iraq between December 12, 2003 and June 22, 2004. 363 tons of cash is over 4 billion. Just to give you an idea of how much that is, to count to 1 billion, saying one number every second, would take 37 years.

That's a lot.
