how about a discount for europeans ? :-)
Why would you want one? The way the dollar is going, you can buy
your ticket for a the rice of a cup of coffee in europe...
Well then, how about a discount for us bankrupt Icelanders? I'd
have to sell my apartment to visit WOWODC this year mumble grumble
freaking bankers mumble mumble subprime mortgage market idiocy
grumble mumble mumble.
I don't know what you are doing over there, but you are doing it
wrong. The US collapsed their banking system and now their
currency is worth more than ours. I can only assume that is
because our system was prudent and stable. That means yours should
be worth more than gold!
Chuck and really not getting global finance
I'll say - global finance eludes me as well.
The regular Icelandic citizen believed the national banking system
to be prudent and stable as well - but then the entire facade
collapsed in less than a day. Fortunately we have a revolution
brewing, so hopefully I'll be drinking the blood of the bankers that
bankrupted us in a couple of months. I'll send pics :-).
Ah Hugi, you and your whacky Icelandic delicacies.
On a completely unrelated note, Icelandic WO talent comes really
cheap (in non-icelandic currency) these days. Grab it while you
can ;-).
