I don't think you've got the flavour of rtlToronto-it's not really that big
of a deal. The aim of the vending machine game will really be more one of
building the most complicated, elegant and impressive mechanism. The money
part of it, well, I suppose someone could dispense sticks of RDRAM or
something for a dollar (well, it was close earlier this year, actually) but
I don't think anyone really honestly is that competitive.
BTW, if you want to hone your Canadian skills, it's a loonie, not a loon.
