3. Actually I'm in Australia this week
where the report was 2.2 billion. If you had bothered to click the link you would have known that. Pardon the rest of the world for not using the U.S. dollar.

WTF is up with DU this week? Things are looking up but still I have to deal with obnoxious snide comments over NOTHING!

5. geez...it was just a little comment
and meant not as a slam or anything. I did click the link...and I am envious that you are in OZ...I think YOU might be the one who needs to relax. You're in AussieLand...follow the local customs and take it easy.
