Hey, they didn't remake the world, just the rules and tech. I gotta side with Swordfish Mustardball.
In all seriousness, they are going to the Euro and converting to base 17 mathematics so that the dark lords will not eat them. |

Why not keep using the metric system? Current day the metric system already is the primary measurement system for North America, except for the USA where it is an widely used by the populance. ;) EDIT: Let us all celebrate the move to base 17 by singing a rousing verse or more of "5E Bottles Of Beer On The Wall". |

Kids nowadays. If you want real old school go DEC PDP-style with 0143 bottles of beer on the wall. :P But the future is base 17, not base 16! |

In 5 years the whole amazing potential of French Genius and sleeping economy could rise above the sky so that country become such a primary state in power. and influence over the world.
Finally France introduces its own money, the NuFranc, as a reminiscence of its currency right before the coming of Euro. Or maybe not ? :spin: I think I REALLy need to sleep ! |
