I wonder how that hobby will hold up , now that the Euro Dollar exchange rate is going the other way ? I also wonder about the Euro in general , with the likes of Germany on one end and Grease and Spain on the other ? I heard a prediction yesterday on Bloomberg $ news that the Euro was heading to 75 cents U.*. , it wasn't that long ago it took $1.60 U.*. to buy one Euro . Never in my life time have I seen a move like that .
