OT - Pennies here in Canada

It's potentially more economic to pick the penny up here, with the Pound worth more than the Dollar. At the UK National Minimum Wage (£6.50/hr for over 25's) the break even point of time invested is 5.5 sec, and it's about 3 sec at the average wage. But that's ignoring of course the small - but potentially very expensive - possibility of physiotherapy if you do your back in, not to mention catching AIDS, Eboli, Ecola or whatever...

We've had Pound coins since 1983.
