If the French country people are so much more likable why when traveling to the little town of Agincourt there is a sign that says in English "Nothing of Military significance ever occurred here". :)

Sounds like some sort of Post-Modern French Existential Ennui Explanation of THEIR DEFEAT.

I still can't believe that I got a relatively good public high school eductation
and didn't hear Shakespeare's "St. Crispin's Day" speech until I was in my thirties.

At least I was educated enough to know a real gem when I hear it.

(And a nod of the head to my Welsh forebearors...thanks to them I pull a
bow with amazing ease, compared to my otherwise stronger friends!)
