Which is why some people have taken to calling it Free/Libre, since French, 
among other languages distinguish the two.

And just as an aside, I'm intrigued that at least one other person besides 
myself and John McKown knows about and understands the concept and is willing 
to espouse it.  (I actually am more of an Open Source person than Free 
Software, but that's not terribly relevant here.)
