Well then the Euro has done its job cleanly then, by allowing seamless cash exchange all across Europe. I'm very impressed with the EU - it is such a strong organisation of countries which are amicable (most of the time) and willing to adopt changes that allow for regional synergy. Like allowing borderless travel and the Euro dollar. Not the same can be said for any other grouping in the world.
