There is more than one way of writing seventy thousand, depending upon where
you are in the world. Many peoples use the period and comma differently than
us in the US -- seeing seven hundred million, three hundred seventy-five
thousandths written as 700.000.000,375 is jarring the first time -- but then
it also depends upon what a million is (that also depends upon where you
are...:-) -- it could mean writing 700.000.000.000,375 instead....)
