Euro coke!

Want another reason not to adopt the euro? Read on:
Apparently, cokeheads in Germany use euro banknotes to sniff their vile drug. The contaminated notes then go back into circulation and it has gotten to the stage now that almost all paper money in Germany contains traces of cocaine.
In a study commissioned by the Institute for Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Research in Nuremberg, nine out of ten German euro notes showed traces of cocaine.
French euro notes are virtually clear of traces of cocaine. This is in line with actual levels of drug use in both countries. In Germany, cocaine usage is considerably higher than France. Before the introduction of the euro, the deutschemark had the highest level of cocaine contamination among European money.
But banknotes from Barcelona really blew the minds of the money-probing scientists.
�We were almost knocked flat by what we discovered there. The concentrations of cocaine on Spanish euro notes were almost a hundred times that of what we recorded in Germany,� said the IBPR�s Fritz Soergel.
The ironic thing for me is that, while waiting for the bus to take us from the Nice-Cote d�Azur airport to downtown Nice in May, I larked about by rolling a five euro banknote really tight and pretending it was a joint. Little did I realize that there really is a direct connection between euro paper money and drug usage.
Of course, need I also say that there is quite a stark difference between dope and coke?
