Pretty much explores this concept. I can't remember what the name of the 'law' (in

I changed it to say "over $ 10,000". I know we are supposed to be exact but, in this instance, that seems nicely to avoid the problem for now (and seems no worse than what the quoted law itself says)— interpret it as $ 10,000 or $ 10,000.01 as you wish.
