Okay, I'll give it a go:
I was just wondering this morning how much
people are spending to put fossil fuels in their
automobiles. And I thought it would be interesting
if we converted our answers into one obscure
currrency that none of us use.
For instance, the cheapest I've seen in the last
48 hours is 226.678 Albanian Lekes* per gallon. Hmm,
I guess we'd need to come up with something other
than gallons and lit[er|re]s. Just to avoid any
show of favoritism to one system over the other.
Oh, and I'm thinking of the cheap stuff, not your
high-octane super premium stuff.
Anybody want to play?
Terry
