If they remove all the French wine those poor New Yorkers will have to drink
wine from New Jersey. Now that is a wmd.

Subject: Yet another possibility


At the liquor store,
I was told that in New York they are taking French wine off the shelves
as fast as they can.

At the college,
my chairman hearing me speak French to one of my students from Kenya,
told me (again): "Speak American, you are in America!"

In class,
a student told me that she really didn't want to go to France on an
internship, and she got upset finding out that she would'n't even be
able to buy American cheese there.

On the Pound list,
I found out that French philosophers may be "roundly hated just because
they're French"
and that "anti-French sentiment is powerful" in the US.

In conclusion,
I wondered if it would be at all possible that the time Pound did spend
in Paris affected him in such negative ways that he eventually ended up
at St. Elizabeths?

But how would I know?
I am not a Pound scholar
I am not American
I am a female
and my sun sign is Virgo!
