My question. Whatever happened to the cents sign... You remember the c with a line through it? What happened. why is it that we now write $.25 instead of the old way 25 c with line through?

1. Computers and inflation did the cents sign in.

2. You can make a cents character show up

¢

1. Make sure that your Num Lock [numbers Lock] is on.
2. Press and hold down your ALT key
3. On your number pad, enter the following numbers (again while holding down your ALT key): 1 5 5
4. After you entered the last digit, let go of the ALT key.

5. Most importantly: if this doesn't work at first, keep practicing It may take a few tries, but it will work. Many a few other peopel have suggest other numbers (i.e. 0162) , these will also work. There a lot of randomly assigned numbers that will do the same job. I only discovered 1 5 5 works for me.

3. It was done in by the internet

Too many people offering their 2¢. It was hoped that making them type out $.02 would get the people to shut up...It didn't work

5. Florida hanging chad ballots. I mean, what was actually done with the ballots themselves?

Were they saved so that someone could determine later how many more votes Gore actually had than Bush?

6. Very good question. I believe reporters ended up counting all the ballots and everything

and actually said Gore won.
