UK's WWII debt to the US

December 31 The United Kingdom pays off its 4.336 billion (thousand million, not million million) dollar (US) World War II debts to the Government of the United States of America.

I have stated which meaning of "billion" was meant according to Misplaced Pages policy (billion), but the user who contributed this may not have been aware of this. It doesn't seem to be anywhere else on Misplaced Pages. Is this correct? Brianjd

37 gubernatorial elections?

Christine Gregoire, governor of Washington, may have her contested 2004 election invalidated in time for a mid-term election in 2006. So, in all actuality, there may be 36 or 37 gubernatorial elections in 2006. Velvetsmog 09:40, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
