What kind lf a French name is THOMSON? That is not French... and while I am posting, many Americans are not traveling to France because of fear of terrorism, and/or fear they are not wanted or liked by the French, NOT because they want to "screw the French".

It comes from the old Thomsom Bulle group when they merged in the 70s if I remeber right. Thomson has only been a public corporation for few years having been owned by the French goverment for long while.
