How cool is this?
A journalism student from Dublin is hoping to sell an e-mail address for Pope Benedict XVI on eBay in a bid to slightly reduce his student loan.
Vincent Flood, 27, immediately set up
popebenedictxvi@hotmail.it when he heard Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger had chosen a new papal name.
One bid of £80 has been received from the US, but Mr Flood is not alone in his attempts to cash in. A Canadian seller has a starting price of $100,000 for popebenedictxvi.com.
