I Really Do Love April Fool's

Leave it to The Economist to strike first this April Fool's day: Announcing Econoland. Apparently, The Economist is branching out into a them park. From the article:

Among the thrilling experiences Econoland will offer are:

The currency high-roller: Float like a butterfly with the euro and drop like a stone with the pound! Chamber of horrors: Tremble at the wailing of distressed debt! Fiscal fantasyland: Watch the economy shrivel before your very eyes as you struggle to stop growth falling! Bankrupt Britain: Pit your wits against the government as you try to sink sterling and bring the country to its knees! The Severe Contest: Try your strength against a bear market!

Hilarious.

Of course, whenever anyone quotes the economist, I have a reaction like the second guy in this story.
