The government just announced that late in 2011 it will replace it's paper-cotton bank notes with ones made from a polymer material.
The so-called "synthetic" currency is much harder to counterfeit and should last two to three times longer than the old natural kind (paper and cotton coming from trees and shrubs).
It couldn't come at a better time. Nowadays most people are looking to stretch their dollars.

I feel your pain, pal. But look at the bright side: what wisdom we've accumulated!
