Brad,
Sorry mate for posting this here, if you wish you can move it, but the Faux news multipliers have been puzzling me, and I need help deciphering them.
During the broadcast at or on about 6:16 Faux time on Sunday 11th Dec. 2005 the news fairy started the news by reporting about the explosions in Hemel Hempstead fuel depot, involving 60 Billion gallons, now the actual amount of fuel is roughly 60 Million gallons, also Faux news fairy reported the plume of smoke at 10,000 feet, the actual height of the plume is 1000 feet. The trouble I have is why 1000 multiplier in the fuel and 10 multiplier in the height, is there any particular ratio of 1000 to 10 (100 to 1) for fuel height mixture that we ought to be aware of?

Ben,
They use multipliers like that all the time, especially when counting Puke votes
