Lukester I have to reject your pronouncement, you want to get me in trouble with the big ugly ogre for stealing Fiona's heart?

Looks like Iceland's currency is toast:

Iceland's Krona Quoted 95 Percent Below Peg; Regulator Steps in

Oct. 8 (Bloomberg) -- Iceland's krona was priced at 94 percent below the peg against the euro set by the central bank yesterday to stabilize the currency as regulators said they took control of Glitnir Bank hf, the country's No. 3 lender.

Nordea Bank AB, the biggest Scandinavian lender, said the price suggested by bid/ask spreads in pre-market trading was 255 per euro, compared with the 131 per euro level established by the central bank yesterday. There had been no buying of the krona to support the peg by the central bank, Nordea said.
