It might be ludicrous, but it has happened. The most recent time that
I know of was in the 1969-1973 time period, I think. I say "I think" be-
cause I'm dredging it up from my memory based on where I was living when it
happened (sharing an office with a Canadian). The fact that the Canadian
dollar was worth more than the American is etched in my mind because one of
our idiot congressmen was absolutely outraged by it, acting like it was an
unpardonable insult to the U. S.
