there's no such thing as safe electrostimulation of sensory nerves.

Bit melodramatic, what?

There is no such thing as no such thing.

You have to realize that John Woodgate is so old that when he learned the
multiplication table it was still very new, and still contained some
faulty results. The multiplication tables have been debugged since then.

I really didn't want to explain, but I suppose I must. The $133.33 bills

are much rarer, and sell to collectors at over $2500 each.

I'd even accept a genuine 1952 English penny.

John, like myself, was taught the tables in an age when you had to be
prepared to change base several times within a single problem. 12d = 1s,
20s = £1, 21s = 1 guinea. A £133/6/8d note would not have been
surprising back then.

His lame defence surprised me, I thought he would say something like this:

"Well, I was the chairman of the committee which set up the multiplication
tables, and the other guys on that committee messed it up."

Then he would try to blame his old friends, Euclid, Pythagoras, Archimedes,
and those arabs with names you cannot pronounce, like Al-Khowarismi
(AKA mr. Algoritm) who wrote the book Kitab al-jabr wa al-muqabalah,
(al-jabr was later pronounced as "algebra").

We also had to convert from £133/6/8 to £133.33 *mentally* and £24.737
to £24/14/8 and three farthings as well. Mental calculation in base 960.

I never blame other people, even though it's always their fault. And I
meant it about the penny, but not the £15 copies you can buy on the web.
A real one would produce a tingling sensation in anybody's fingers. (;-)

Not in the same ball-park.(;-) There are five known nickels, but there

is only ONE known 1952 English penny.
