The French really know how to revolt! If only they could fight a war without surrendering, they would be pretty darn cool.

Pretty please could you change the thread title so that it reflects the subject of the thread? And I'll move this to the labour and consumption forum. Thanks!

Hephaestion has started a thread with a proper thread title, and in any case, I am a little perturbed with the francophobic turn to this thread, ironic or not.
