Dated info on CO web site on currency conversion

From CO's link Traveling to Houston for the game (on main continental.com page) under Houston info:

1 American Dollar (US$1) = Ł0.64; C$1.57; A$1.79; €1.01
Currency conversion rates as of November 2002

And you guys wonder why they can't keep current info on their web site .....

At least they tell you what the quote date was so that it's obviously out-of-date.

Wish I could buy euro's for $1.01 each right now. Can I call the customer care line and tell them they should honor the $ to euro rate since it's posted on the website .
