Ikorrellim posted on a different forum the following comment:
"Well, I thought this thread was about Boycotting French products…however, I heard an interesting remark on the news the other night…It stated that the French are the biggest consumers of McDonald’s products in all of Europe…that was very interesting to me…I thought the French were quite particular about their food and wine…anyone care to comment?

This is indeed a very interesting topic, feel free to comment/answer ikorrellim.
Chirac undecided on EU constitution referendum for France
President Jacques Chirac has not yet decided whether he will hold a referendum in France on a proposed EU constitution, as Britain has declared it will do, a government spokesman said.
“As far as France is concerned, two paths are possible and provided for by the constitution,” spokesman Jean-Francois Cope told journalists.
The two options for ratification he was referring to were a plebiscite and parliamentary approval.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair on Tuesday announced a U-turn on his previous plans to say his country would hold a referendum.
Want to learn French?
Hi. This is a commercial site, but they have some fun resources if you’re learning French. On the left side of the screen, scroll down to Language and there is a "word of the day" and various games and quizzes that you can use without buying anything. You can subscribe to the word of the day and they e-mail a different word to you each day. Once you learn all the words, just unsubscribe. I made my own little dictionary when I first tried it, just copied and pasted into a word processing document.

Picasso sought French citizenship
Spanish artist Pablo Picasso applied for French citizenship just before German troops invaded France in 1940, but was turned down because police saw him as a Communist sympathiser, a new exhibition shows.
Picasso’s brief letter of application, featuring his instantly recognisable signature, is the highlight of an exhibition of 40 years of police surveillance of the celebrated artist, which opened at the Paris Police Museum on Tuesday.
The records, among hundreds of files stolen by the Nazis during World War Two and seized by the Russians in 1945, lay in KGB vaults in Moscow for decades before being returned to France in 2000.
