Well that's EXACTLY what i thought.....

Sorry David. There was nothing of a personal nature in my
post, unless you mean the word 'stupid'. I used it because 
its the same word Derek used to describe his opinion in the 
post I was replying to. I quoted his comment in my post. You 
have removed this from the top of your reply, as I'm sure you 
must be aware.

So if you asked me for $100 and I diddnt have it so i gave
you 3 $10 notes and the rest in monopoly money that would 
be ok?

AND HERES THE REAL PROBLEM --->

What if you dont notice, then you go to the supermarket and
and try to pay for your groceries? Will the cashier accept
the monopoly money? Maybe. Hopefull not, because every time
somebody accepts it, the bug is one step further down the line,
and when it enevtaully stops, you've got a hell of a mess trying
to figure out who's handing out the bad cash...

Graeme.
