I hope that this is a typo or something. $1.8 TRILLION for a velodrome?!?!?!?!

Cedar Glen, CA -

School Superintendant, Jim Swift, said "I advocated for this as soon as I saw the cost-benefit analysis. A velodrome is going to cost $1.8 trillion whereas a stadium retrofit and new astroturf was going to cost us $1.9 trillion. That may seem like a small difference, but that's actually $100 billion dollars. We can buy quite a few books and computers for that much money."
