Thanks for the insights guys...
I guess I wouldn't be too happy about it if a conglomeration of countries tried to tell me that I couldn't use the USD, so I can understand the sentiment...
I read that 75% figure in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch yesterday (Pulitzer-owned paper). I thought that it came off of the AP wire, but I can't find the friggin' article on AP today. I thought that seemed a little high.
It said something like...
---Although Blair has won re-election, his push to move to the Euro will not be an easy path. Although he favors it, he still has to convince the other 75% of the UK that it is a good idea. (The poll was conducted by Gallup, I believe)---
Please understand that I am paraphrasing here. If I can locate the article online, I will post the link.

Now where did I leave that doughnut?!
