A note from the editor 10

Here's a 'them and us' situation to think  about. In the 'us' camp every week most  chalet girls go down to Hyper Champion in  Moutiers to do your big food shop and as  they push their two trolleys laden through  the checkout and check their budget  envelope to make sure they haven't overspent  and if they're lucky they have a few  spare 20euro note left over.
  In the real world ìthemî, the US, are coming  to terms with a slight misplacement of  funds in Iraq. After the war finished they  shipped 362 tonnes of cash, mostly 400k  bricks of 100 dollar bills to help kick start  the economy. That's about 12 billion dollars  which they can't account for. To put  that in perspective you would need several  forklift trucks to move that amount of  cash. When questioned about this loss  their only answer to blame it on 'bad  bookkeeping'. Guess they didn't keep all  their receipts.
