    I know, that's not what's in practice. But it's worth thinking about when making the point you made.
    I have one hundred trillion Zimbabwean dollars in my sock drawer.

    How much is that?

    About 30 bucks.

    I'm actually shocked that Canada would value our dollar that high

    And with that, I'm off to bed.

    What can I say, the canadian government is criminally incompetent. Also, criminal. Also, so totally wrong. Plus, arbitrary and all that. Relations would go sour if we started mocking your dollar. Then we're up to our eyeballs in unsellable resources.

    Ha, this'll be interesting... Due to a glitch I can't seem to play impossible mode (was wondering why it wasn't showing in the difficulty selection), so I'll be playing to stage 5 on hard then swapping over since I apparently have a save at that point.

    Just some problems with the universe being 13,000(or 6,000 according to the Bible) years old and the basis for that doomsday calculation. Every human has 400,000 year old Neanderthal DNA included in their DNA(Francis Collins is a devout Christian and the head of the Human Genome Project yet many Christians still consider DNA to be a lie) and there are bright objects in our universe 11 billion light years away. The light took 11 billion years to get here.
    I'll see you in 2013.

    On a brighter note, scored a PSP and a PS2 for 110 bucks.

    Also, human chromosome 2.

    Turns out, there's genetic evidence we evolved from monkeys.

    Probably at least part of why there's Christian sects that say DNA is a hoax.

    That was awesome. Fun times.

    Lesson #2:

    You will accidentally kick your friend's ass. No matter how hard you try not to.
