Well, apparently Mr. Matt (not so) Sharp is not only an idiot, but he appears to be an idiot that copies material from other idiots!

 

I just noticed this post on the forum where this "article" was located.

 

"Dear Mr. Sharp,
For your edification/education please read http://www.2000wave.com/article.asp?id=mwo032803.
Oh, and when you quote or paraphrase information
from other printed material, even in a letter to
an editor, it is appropriate to cite said info.

Good catch. Here's a corrected link.

This urban legend about oil rich countries switching to the Euro shows up every three to five years in those Middle Eastern countries who's currencies are tied to the US dollar. It began when petrodollars started flowing to those countries (about 30 years ago ) , and won't end anytime soon. Not saying that it won't ever happen, but it's usually just wishful thinking on some European's part. I'm surprised anyone fell for it.

Before the Euro, the rumor usually had those countries switching from the dollar to whichever currency was trading the strongest at that time. The British Pound, Swiss Francs, or the most popular, German Deutschmarks were the front runners.

Thank you for that excellent link (and very long read)...
