    Possible end of GBP

    Um... why is that a consequence? You dont have to get 1=1 before you can join something.

    Possible end of GBP

    You seem to be missing the key fact here that the Pound IS Sterling. Its known as the Pound Sterling. I think the disconnect between the name and the FX symbol (GBP or Great British Pound) is proving too much for your speak 'n spell brain to follow...

    Possible end of GBP

    Instead of talking about global FX rates perhaps you should, study geography- Armagh is in N.Ireland (right on the border with Southern Ireland), which is part of the UK, which is where Sterling is used. So your argument should read that the Eurozone should use Sterling to make your poker...

    If you could live anywhere

    This time fo year we have unusual weather, April was hot ~20C-25C and people were out in shorts then in May it rained the whole time. For summer its usually pretty reliable though. I'd like to do April/May to end-Sept in London and the rest in S.France/Switzerland to be near the mountains.

    $7/Gallon Oil?....hope not!

    Well what could they do? Make oil out of air? Invade yet another country and totally screw up? Oil is more expensive than it needs to be because of your 'wonderful' govt. Just buy more efficient cars and stop pumping hundreds of billions of $ into a region that hates you and wants you dead.
