» t r u t h o u t | Report Friday 24 February 2006 The White House turned over last week 250 pages of emails from Vice President Dick Cheney’s office.

From The Olympian:
An acre-foot is the amount of water it takes to cover one acre 1 foot deep (326,851 gallons). So, that's about 130,740,400 gallons per year.
