I just looked up the numbers and obtained 150 million for the day's revenue
in '99. That's almost 2 orders of magnitude lower than 10 billion. I
realize that 2000 set a record, but I think it wasn't over 200 million for
the entire day for Fox. So, 100 billion would be 500 times as much.
I cannot imagine each day of a Mars trip grabbing the people's attention
like one day of the super bowl.
