Not enough zeros in the world

So it seems the "clock" that keeps track of the US's national debt has finally run out of digits; I think that pretty much sums up how fubar this whole thing is.

On the upside, there may be a slim chance that the accounts that the US and UK governments are pilfering money from may be based on the same shoddy programming used to design the debt clock and thereby have also run out of digits, thus capping the amount of money they (and by they, I mean WE) have to claw back. Here's to hoping!
