I, probably unlike most of the posters on this list, HAVE been to France,
and speak from personal experience. Although I am sure that there are fine
folk in France, just like everywhere, France had the singular distinction of
having been the snobbiest and most rude people I ever met. I have traveled
extensively in Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Austria, Italy and Great
Britian. Maybe the French were having a bad WEEK when I was there. (At least
they were consistent.) Germany should consider invading France again.
