• 1995, an article in The Securities Journal, issues 9-12, page 47, also printed in Forbes, volume 156, issues 1-5, page 119:

  Just as an American billion can be called a thousand million (instead of a milliard), the lack of an unvigintillion or whatever could be dealt with by following the vigintillion with a thousand vigintillion, a million vigintillion, a billion vigintillion, up to a nonillion vigintillion.
