Good story, but another stupid reporter not checking the facts. 1000 Euros is more like $1240 - not $800.

LOL, I was just doing the math in my head thinking the same thing, it didn't sound right. Would be great if we could get that rate again soon. He did the currency conversion backwards.

LOL. Yup. It is so hard to type "1000 Euros in USD" into google. Google does nice currency conversions.
