Well that code would print the string in the echo statement 1 million times. (get it? Thanks a million) Where are you supposed to do it? Don't know.

OMG. I am embarrassed. I know how to write and read code and I missed the joke. (to be fair to myself, I didn't actually look at it, I just copied and pasted it here :) )

Wow. I thought I even counted the zeros to make sure. It's like that ST:TNG episode with Picard and the four lights. At the end, I believed there were 6 zeros. Obviously it *should have* been 1 million. :)
