Put your hands on your hips...

Hey! You want real time travel? Well, we're bringing back the 90s for our American friends!
Right now, we've worked the flux capacitor to set the exchange rates back to what they were about a decade ago!
But we can't guarantee how long the time warp will last (perhaps if you just jump to the left?).
Take advantage of What The Fur's lower pre-registration prices, and if you're from the US and decide to pay right away, you get the added bonus of a really good exchange rate!

A few anachronisms crop up in your announcement. Back to the Future is anchored in 1985, so referring to that is bringing back the 80's. The Rocky Horror Picture Show is bringing back the 70's. A decade ago wasn't the 90's either. Bringing back ten years ago, say mid-May 2005, the exchange rate was about the same it is today, within about 1ยข. 8^D

Edit: It dawns on me that I missed the joke: yes, today's rates of exchange are an advantage to the US attendee. 9_6

It was just funny that of everything you borrowed from, none came from the 1990's, and yet the 1990's was stated as the destination. Unless... you were planning on marooning the American Friends in the 1990's. Which might not be too bad! 8^D
