Louis,

Any abandonment of the euro by us is out of the question anyway. By I think
that such a survey should be made in France. Those who want to go back here,
but do not understand that there are only burnt ships left behind, only look
at their own interests and they never prepared for the change. Many of them
continue to convert all prices back to guilders. What a stupid exercize!
My perception is that prices have not risen more than usual, except for the
con trick perpetrated by the outlets at the railway stations last July.
