I don't get it. Why would the end result number be less than the first number if it was a later date. baah. -domstrand

DOMSTRAND! I really hope you are coming to class tomorrow. I e-mailed your mother some more US History stuff today. Did you get it?

All you have to make up is the Unit 5 exam and the mid-term.

There's a Psych unit exam on Friday. You can use that period to get your make-up work done.

I hope to see you tomorrow.

Wow...

One penny in 1800 is equal to 11 cents modern day.

But $1 in 1800 is equal to $11.43 now.

But wow...

$1.00 in 1901 is equal to $23.36 in 2006.

Wooow... and one penny in 1901 - 23 cents in 2006.

Yeah... I'm easily amazed...

Ok,
That is totally wild! It would completely suck to live in that time! I would be so rich, now that i think about it, that could be totally awesome!!!! What a hard time it must have been though, so many people starved.

wow...i always knew money was worthless...but it really it! What was a moderate amount of cash back in the late 1800's is a fraction of how much that money would mean today
