Argentina's 2005 inflation - 12.3%

the same as 2004... prospects for 2006 aren't looking so hot either...

January inflation looks like topping last month’s 1.1 percent while experts estimate that prices could rise by as much as 15 percent this year, as against the 2005 total of 12.3 percent (the world’s highest after Venezuela’s 14.4 percent).

speaking of BIG NUMBERS...! temps here in buenos aires are expected to climb as high as 38-40C (that's close to 100F) over the weekend...
