I have talked to a few Paris metro and rnr(?) Signaling folks, I wish I did go back a few years ago I would have paid a lot more attention to how they do things.

Just try it but add your own NYC flair.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Looking at the map, France should also be in GMT. For that I blame the Nazis.


France is in twelve timezones.

According to that logic, the Netherlands also has several time zones, thanks to the ABC-islands.

They can hardly be called continental Europe, now can they? France is indeed France, though. Let us not speak of treacherous Algeria.

There have been attempts to make it so, some more successful than others. These days we are more enlightened, but stil France can find satisfaction in the knowledge that they are the only nuclear superpower in the European Union.
