Tired old joke. Are you including our numerous California PDML members
in that cereal box?

I've lived in California since 1958, and am quite fond of it.
It didn't start going to hell until some 5 years after I arrived. So, I can't
claim I had anything to do with it becoming overtly liberalized and such...
Nevertheless, some darned fine folks live here, just like almost every other
place, if you have the time to root them out. <G>

Do you speak any French? Or English with a Canadian accent, perhaps?
We never expect or anticipate problems, but have run into more than
our share of surly waiters and counter help here and there.
Just my run of luck, I guess... I love Paris, it just doesn�t love
me back...

Paris is like California, which would be a wonderful place, if it
weren't for Californians...
