One quick correction there fanfan, it's my understanding that the Canadian two dollar coin is referred to as as "TOONIE", *not* a "twoonie", that mispronunciation could be fatal in the wrong situation, if you know what I mean? ;)

In a pinch, I would recommend that RY2 pretend to be a deaf-mute, do NOT speak, but carry a note pad and communicate that way, and claim to be from Ireland.

Oh my gosh! You're right!

Rebel, it's pronounced toony, like 'loon'ytunes.

A deaf mute from Ireland?

Who would believe that?

LOL!
