    Cable is about 1.67 and your looking for 2 bucks. Hummmmmm, I might just take the other side of that punt soon.
    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

      Not if you need it to get to work.

        It's funny how that 1.67 number keeps coming back. I've kept an eye on GBP vs USD since at least the late eighties, and whatever the short term fluctuations, it always seems to settle back at around 1.65 to 1.67. One could almost say it was deliberately fixed there...
