Which was my point, of course. As I said:

``Additional discussion, suggesting a range of views in all
the countries involved, can be found at

The bottom line is that there are costs and benefits to
adopting the currency of a large major trading partner,
and the usefulness of doing so will depend on country
specific circumstances.  An unpleasant state of affairs
for those who like to wallow in certainties.''
