Seeee, I always say that foreigners always attribute to the French what the *Parisians* do!!! You talk to someone and they say "I've been to France" and they really mean "I've visited Paris", or they say "French people are rude", and they've only ever been to Paris....this is just one other example, isn't it? Now tell me, how many books about "naughty French" has anyone read that didn't come from or was set in Paris? none, I bet :-) Helene, the virtuous French froggy who doesn't come from Paris :-) with apologies to Dominique, who I'm sure doesn't come from Paris either, do you, Dominique?...
