Are you serious?

If you are serious, I believe that Bob was talking about a single
release, which is composed of many stories (several iterations, each of
which contains several stories). In XP, Use Cases might be used to
describe User Stories. So, many User Stories would imply many Use Cases.

I really can't explain this any further and just have to assume that you
are just trolling.
