I have recently returned from holiday in Ireland. To save up for this holiday I began purchasing Euros periodically over a year ago. When I started $.91 bought 1 Eu. Now the exchange rate is $1.17 to 1 Eu.

I have it in my mind that opening a savings account in Euros and depositing money into it may be a wise precaution as a reserve safety net.

I also have it my mind that divesting from the US dollar will be a stronger protest against the policies of the Bush administration than any attendance anti-war rallies or other progressive mass demonstrations.

I would like to know what others here think before I start recommending divestment as a means of resisting Bush.

Thanks!
