If you had crap-loads of money, it'd almost be worth doing that, but making sure you left out the corner of every note
Then, being the generous but also slightly evil chap I am, I'd probably give the guy the cash anyway, just for the fun of watching the emotional rollercoaster I just put the guy through.
Mwahahahaha
Why the corner? And why give him the cash anyway? I have already posted the rules about you only need 50% of a note "in general" and really only the serial number, "promise bit" and signature.Ah in that case, leave out the serial number on each oneLost????Why the corner?

Thats a brilliant idea.Firstly you can scan them. Secondly even if *you* couldn't I could show you how to scan the fragment's outlines (enabling edge detection). Thirdly no they wont magically reform into full notes, but if you label with with a bit of skill, it'd take about 4 days max to do the lot.

I can imagine the look on some rich guys face when they see their dustbin man look in the bin and find them. It would be even funnier, in a sick sadistic way, to throw every peice but one, and leave him with a set of thousands of incomplete notes.
Indeed, I dare say Angus-Higgins may well be the ideal candidate for this sort of thing...
Still, I very much doubt you'd be able to look up "autistics direct" in the Yellow pages![]()
