It always looks like 30-point-000 to me.
Because 30,000 means 30-point-zero-zero-zero over here, why do you ask!? But what better should I expect of people driving on the wrong side of the road!?
The decimal point designates a fraction (also refered to as 'and') in the rest of the world. What planet is Germany on?
