It has a surface oxide layer, like aluminium. But it's NOT suitable for
skin contact. It is a powerful allergen, and even if you are not
allergic, nickel in solution is highly toxic.

A guinea and three, yes? Or a pound and a crown less one. Or four times a

And in the US, we don't even have Canada's pretty and different
colored bills.
The new 20 and 50 dollar bills are a lot more colorful than tne
'old'
ones that came out just a few years earlier. The peach colored
paper
looks more colorful than the old bleah paper. The 'holographic' 20
and
50 insignias look cool, too.
Since the $100 bills came out first, there was some confusion when the
$20s
came out. I recall paying for a $15 purchase with a new $20 and
getting $85
in change. I didn't keep it, nor the $40 change for a $10 purchase
later,
but when I got change of $16 for a $14 dollar purchase, I kept it.
Stupidity tax.

Last week the teller bitch at the credit union tried to shortchange me.
I asked for and signed for $600, and after she handed it to me I counted
it and I got $500, so I counted it again - same, and I handed it back
and said you had better count it. Yep, a hundred short. I wished her a
Merry Christmas as I left. ;-) Be sure you count your money before you
step away from the teller! |

It's only a 0.8 dB error, for goodness sake! (;-)

Make sure you do it without removing it from his/her sight, i.e.
right on the counter. Normally well trained tellers count it
twice, once for themselves, and once while transferring it to you.
The fact that you got your money indicates to me that either you
didn't remove it from sight, or that your nomenclature is
undeserved. The latter is probably true anyway.

Heh. Yeah, but hey, it's _my_ 0.8 dB!!
And this isn't the only time I've been shorted by them recently. I got
several rolls of dollar coins, and a couple rolls came 2 short, and
another came with four quarters. Then another roll came with a Mexican
100 Peso coin in it. I checked and one of those was auctioned for 40
cents on ebay, but no one bought it. So I think I got a worthless coin
there, too. I complained and they credited by acct with the shortage.
