How high can you count? (28)

How high can you count?

If you had all the time and patience in the world, how high could you theoretically count before you didn't know what the next number was? You have to be able to say the words (e.g., "nine hundred ninety-nine"), not just write the numbers ("999"). No googling.

You're missing a zero, and you can't count that high. How do you say the integer that precedes it?

Pretty much the same for me, though I knew septillion was next. I took a guess at the next three things, and turned out to be right. I think I looked them up a long time ago.

I can count up to pi.

The minimum length for an argument is 50 characters. The purpose of this restriction is to cut down on the amount of dumb jokes, so we can keep the quality of debate and discourse as high as possible.
