[QUOTE="silentnviolent, post: 1512560, member: 8797"]First off, I'm pretty sure shredded bills are [I]incinerated[/I]. Second, why is that a good argument? I like a stack of singles, and I'm sure there are girls at the gentleman's club who'd prefer them over coins as well. :) If this "fact" is so prevalent then why are they sitting in storage in the millions? Why does every clerk who knows I collect coins try to 'get rid of' them and [I]tell me[/I] how much they 'hate those things'? I can go over a month without ever seeing one and that suits me just fine. The [I]fact[/I] is that if they were as popular as you claim, this discussion would not have occured, because we'd already be using them, and they'd have replaced the notes almost seamlessly. I'm all for choice. If you want to use the lame coins then fine, go ahead. Be my guest. But don't try to cram your [I]preferances[/I] into any form of legislation in an attempt to [I]force[/I] them on other people.[/QUOTE]
