Reminds of that Channel Tunnel episode of 'Yes Minister' where the
most viciously diplomatic negotiation was over whether the menus in
the restaurant car would be in English or French.
AndrewF I would just point out that there is an E on the end of Concorde. I point this out because you would not believe how much pain, effort and national pride went into ensureing that the "E" was there. The British just decided that it would stand for "excellence", "England", or "Engineering".Julian < This message was delivered via the Olympus Mailing List > < For questions, mailto:owner-olympus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > < Web Page: http://Zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright/olympuslist.html > |
