    saying that the government is going to

    make the 5$ bill purple first to see how

    it goes.....they are doing this soooo that

    itll be harder to copy

    Money in the UK has been colour coded for years. Still counterfeited even with every extra security feature they put in.

    This is one of the many benefits of living in England, our money has always been colour coded :)

    Also, the weather is absolutely awesome [/sarcasm]
