...Well, the smallest one is the Thaddeus Kosciuszko National Memorial. It's 0.
02 acres inside a Philadelphia row house. If it were a square, it would be
less than 30' on a side. That might work. :-D - Tues, Jan 6 2009 4:14 am

Army Commemorative Coin Act signed - 2 new

...Right. I gave the Coast Guard one as a token gift to my neighbor, who is
relatively high up in the command. You'd think I had given him an 1804 silver
dollar the way he reacted with appreciation. There's no reason why all such
military commemoratives can't be channeled into medals rather than coins. Or
stamps - the USPO enshrines everything - Tues, Jan 6 2009 4:14 am

Ebay changes? - 2 new

...I've had anomalies disappear on their own, too, but usually it's after a
reboot resets something internally. (Sometimes it takes two reboots.) The
strange part is that it happens only on scrolling e-Bay lists. You're getting
your saved searches back so that "remember me" feature isn't broken, you just
lost the previous values. - Tues, Jan 6 2009 4:14 am

The answer to getting halves, $2 bills and $1 coins circulating? - 2 new
------------------------------------------------------------------------
...It's bad economic policy to circulate halves and $2 bills. Inflation has
surpassed both of those. The US needs to drop the paper $1 and $2 bills, and
the penny and nickel. Just use dimes, quarters, dollar coins, and $5 coins;
and I am no longer sure about the dimes. Your best chance for sled dogs on
circulating money would be to ask - Tues, Jan 6 2009 8:14 am
