EasternMost Europeans who use,as a decimal point will only receive fifteen euros.-
I get using a comma as a radix, sure. It makes grammatical sense, like saying "two, and three tenths", just a little pause between concepts.
But how does it make any sense anywhere to use a full-stop for grouping digits?! "1.000.000.000.000" looks ludicrous, not to mention we can't even agree on whether thats a billion or a million!

Ethic cleansing is when I throw a short fuse grenade into an ethics debate.
That would be 'ethical cleansing'. Ethic cleansing would be to cleanse ethic, meaning you are getting rid of the ethic. That is basically just erasing one's morals. I think that's already being taken care of.
