Skyscrapers? Do we have those in Canada. You can't hit what you can't find....
Not that this is off topic or anything. I would take it off this list but I am not on the other one. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 8:51 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Yea, but I don't notice the Canadians getting their skyscrapers pounded by people enraged at middle east policies, either. I guess it's a mixed bag, low gas prices. "You get what you pay for." Me, I'd rather pay 4$ a gallon, and use it to get us the F**K out of the Middle East. Period. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 10:36 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L You still pay about three times for gas. Gas prices in Canada as they are in parts of Europe but they are bad. Makes me want to throttle people in Oregon who complain about the gas prices out here. Especially since they have no sales tax. You never know how good you have it until you don't. -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 4:35 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L The Canadian gallon is not the same as the U.S. gallon. The Canadian gallon uses 5 qts. not 4. My 0.03 Eureo's worth.

Last time I visited Canada, gas cost me more Canadian dollars per gallon that U.S. dollars per gallon in the states. Ditto for coffee, pop, candy bars, fast-food, etc. In many cases, portions were smaller. I'd buy a large coffee at McDonalds in Canada and it'd be a lot smaller than a U.S. large.

KS> They just won't believe me but I swear to god it's true. I distinctly remember this. I don't remember the flocking part, but I clearly remember a brief time back when I was a teenager that the Canadian dollar was worth a few cents more than ours. So now you've found at least one person who believes. Canada's my favorite vacation destination, btw. I had the holidays off and tried to convince my daughter to go on a rail/bus trip to Moosonee. I was really excited about the idea, but Jenny wouldn't hear of it. She actually got mad at me for even suggestion we travel farther north. So I gave up on Moosonee for now, and I'm looking at maybe doing a weekend rail trip to Hearst with my son.
