Unk - so close... but not quite right! Remember you can't use the term "eighteen hundred" - that would be "one thousand eight hundred."

Just one minor detail left to fix - the list goes only from one to one billion.

If you want to see the answer, highlight my last posts. There should be something appearing out of the blue! ;) (both literally and figuratively :p)
But it's a spoiler, don't say I didn't warn you :)

I thought this was strict alphabetical, not numerical. ( By "first" I mean the first alphabetically.) M comes before T.

WG - what I meant is that "eighteen million eighteen thousand (and whatever)" comes before "eighteen million eleven."

Well OK, if you're giving up... the answer is below, but hidden using white font so as to not spoil it for others. You can see it either by high-lighting it (hold down the left mouse button and sweep over it) or by hitting "Quote User."
