Dizer writes: "Today sees the historic introduction of the new European Currency (Euro) into European hands. The Eurozone market, with a population of 300 million people, will be cashing in their Punts, Francs and Deutschmarks in favour of the new common Euro currency. This is the biggest currency transition in history, vive l'Europe! See stories on ireland.com or the BBC."

    Like theyd did in 1940 ??
    Yeah, you know, now I see the light. Hitler's suicide was a hoax, he actually went underground where he started to work on his plan to take over Europe - and on the 1st of January 2002, the result of Hitler's planning, the Euro, is unleashed upon the world, but yet again, those trusty Brits (aided by the Danes and the Swedes) resist the Nazi hoardes leaving them free to do whatever Bush tells them to do.
