That´s another thing. Why do you write $ BEFORE the number? I have 2 apples. I have two dollars. Not apple2, not $2. The consequence: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2isSJKntbg.

we have 1 and 2 dollar coins in canada...

also, i think month day year makes sense

cuz people normally say things like

July 8th, 2009.

I wish we had 1€ bills...

And i just have to agree: month/day/year? Come on... that doesnt make any sense at all.

@inty: most other languages speak it like "8th july 2009"...

My birthday is in the ID written as 09/07/87. I loved how every shop assistant got confused each time I was buying a beer during last summer whether I am 21. Once he even called someone higher to consult it :-D

What really bothers me about the Euro thing, is that 5 cent Euro. All the coins get smaller, until you get the 5 cent one. Then it gets bigger and a different color. When I'm reaching into my pocket to find other coins those stupid 5 cent ones are tricky.

As a matter of fact coins worth less than 50 Euro-Cent are not worth being carried around...

Yeah, I know we have $1 coins.

Euro-Cent sounds retarded.

What happens on 09/09/09?
