Which countries currently use the Euro? I've seen multiple websites name 14 countries and 12 countries, so if someone here (perferably from Europe) could name the countries that use it, t'would be great.

Er....anybody know?
Err...i guess they don't care. Give it time they will come. Actually check on Google, somewhere there should be info on this. Try www.CNN.com, www.forbes.com, www.washingtonpost.com. They might have info on this subject in their buisness sections. Also www.wallstreetjournal.com. Good luck

for travelling the Euro is quite nice. I seriously avoid flying through denmark and sweden because you can't pay with euros at their airports (you can, but you get their silly playmoney back, which you then have to get rid of again)
on the other hand, it seems like things got slightly more expensive.

Denmark could have join the EURO, but the people voted no in a close to 50/50 election.
as fare as i remember both the UK and Sweden could also have joined the EURO, but did not
EDIT:
spuriousmonkey, have you tryed asking for EURO in return.

Well,… England is gonna be stuck with the sterling pound and Bush for a while.
One thing is to want or not the EURO, and a total different thing it is to qualify for it, and worst, to maintain rigorous budgeting policies to not be penalized.
Since most European countries end up paying for the previous golf war, cash flow is not given that easy the moment Bush wangles his prick.
