I was wondering when they were going to add to the 750 million. I was sick of seeing it on Wikipedia and other articles, when I knew the actual number was way higher. This makes me so happy party/

Is there another thread floating around because I could swear that I posted a comment on this threat This is an incredible legacy (Michael's legacy) to pass down to ones children!<br /><br />Michael - there is nobody that I think deserves this recognition more than you. God bless you and keep you safe always. Stay strong and remember that you are loved.<br /><br />Blessings
