Mer*e! I had temporarily forgotten that!
France is one country that has always jealously maintained, or tried to 
maintain, the purity of it's national language. I should have remembered that...
In fact, now that I recall, those in Quebec, Canada's French speaking province 
(?) fiercely adhere to that same state of mind!
Quebec! Who else would have a _Musée de la Civilisation_? I love the fervor!
