Lightbulb Crystal ***** Out - Rate of Exchange

OK Here's the game.

What do you think the GBP to US Dollar Rate of Exchange will be on 1/1/10?
Currently 1:1.41943 (www.xe.com)

I'll post a poll of a few options. Nearest to the correct answer gets a crisp.
50

Shouldn't you be prepping the spare bedroom instead of nitpicking my posts

And the crisp will be salty
