In USMA's currency page
http://lamar.colostate.edu/~hillger/currency.htm
"The United States  pioneered decimal coinage
(the U.S. dollar consisting of 100 cents)  in 1786. 
Now all nations have decimal currencies, 
for example: the French system (1 franc = 100
centimes)".

With French people approving Euro & European policies,
I think its time to retire French franc in our USMA
webpage example.  I suggest we should replace it with
"1 Euro = 100 Eurocents".

Similarly in everyday page
http://lamar.colostate.edu/~hillger/everyday.htm
"Area:
10 000 square meters = 1 hectare
100 hectares = 1 square kilometer"

We can add '1 are = 100 square meters'.  This may
lead people to use the unit.
