| Euros have been in use for some time, and for about the last
| year most of the disappearing currencies have been in a
| mode of forced-exchange to the Euro.  So, in Paris this Summer,
| paying in francs at Timhotel was only possible using the
| franc-Euro exchange rate set by fiat by the European money
| authorities.  I found it better to exchange US dollars for
| francs or Euros at a cambio rather than accept this terrible
| franc-Euro exchange.  At one point, it seemed cheaper to
| exchange francs to dollars to Euros at a cambio rather than
| accept the fiat exchange rate.  Again, many people have gotten
| used to thinking in Euros, especially folks in Europe.

What are you on about? There is no 'exchange rate' between Franc and Euro.
If you exchange Franc <-> Dollar at a cambio, you pay them a percentage.
If you exchange Euro <-> Dollar at a cambio, you pay them a percentage.
There are no fees exchanging Franc <-> Euro.
Whether you pay with Franc or Euro, it's the same thing.
