What will happen if the Irish vote NO on 12 June too?
WW2 "fifth night" mapped D-Day landings on 14 June 2008 - big destruction period

"So what will be the future reserve currency?"
Chinese Yuan or Renminbi (RMB) - which means 'money of the people'
That said, the Chinese have been a bit reticent about promoting their dosh as the next global reserve, yet it seems inevitable.
PS: Get used to the idea of a country called Zhong Guo (pronounced jong gwo) - it's what the Chinese call China!
