So the French consume wines, while we Americans produce whines, eh? 
Fair
enough, fair enough....

But in any case, folks, is there a light at the end of the tunnel here?
Other than that produced the usual flames, I mean.  An active killfile
has
managed to reduce a good bit of the nonsense that reaches my In-box
these
days, but there hasn't been much in the way of ON topicality over the
past
few days.

Can we just take a break for a day or two?  Resist the impulse to throw
more fule on the fire, agree that we're *all* a bunch of damned ignorant
foreigners from somebody's point of view, and more on to more productive
things.
