I can't stand to even look at my Carnac Legends anymore, because they're French. But I'm running
into a problem replacing them. I need a shoe with a wide toebox. Are Sidi megas as wide as the
Carnacs? Or is there some other equivelent shoe?
 
older nikes had a wide toe box, don't know if they even make a cycling shoe anymore however.

Equivalent shoe: do a tape-over job and rebrand them as "Freedom Legends".

Aren't TIME pedals, shoes, frames, forks also made in France?
 
Carnac is Egyptian, n'est-ce pas?

I had the same thought this morning but jeeeez they're Carnacs and they're awful dam comfy so I've
decided to ban French Wine from my house. Besides, if I had to get rid of all my French stuff, I
wouldn't have much cycling stuff left. In the scheme of things, France is nothing more than a small
pimple on the ass of the world so who cares...

Shhhhh...Don't let them hear that. What is sad about this whole thing, and I think it applies to
the country as a whole was summed up in a statement by a French Foreign Legion officer who had
fought alongside regular french units. He said "The average french soldier is magnificent, it is a
shame that they have been let down so badly by their officers and leaders." My experience is that
the average french citizen are good decent people, including my brother in law and his family.
Parisians are a different breed altogether, they are a culture unto themselves, and are snickered
at by the rest of France also. Bill C.
 
47% of US citizens are opposed to Bush and the oil administrations illegal war. Most of the rest of
the world is also. So why don't just you boycott life.

US foreign policy is a huge boil on the worlds face. I love how someone from a country with only
6% of the worlds population with 50% of the worlds wealth can sit in his cozy warm house and say
how people should be killed. If you want to kill someone why don't you go over there and do it
your self?

What's the big deal with the French disagreeing? Worldwide, the view that Saddam Hussein is an
immediate threat to the US is a minority opinion. Our Founding Fathers would approve of the debate,
both of the pro and the con.

"Difference of opinion leads to enquiry, and enquiry to truth; and that, I am sure, is the ultimate
and sincere object of us both. We both value too much the freedom of opinion sanctioned by our
Constitution, not to cherish its exercise even where in opposition to ourselves."

-- Thomas Jefferson to P. H. Wendover, 1815

We did the right thing in the Cold War.

Containment worked against the Soviet Union. Since you looked down the barrell of T-72s, I'm
sure you will agree that the successful containment policy was preferable to an attempted
pre-emptive strike.

What is being proposed now (by W. Bush) is not containment.

currently that would seem to be low oil prices. certainly an altruistic cause, if ever
i've seen one.

The difference of opinion is fine and I have no problem with a peaceful resolution to disarmamment
(did I spell that right); however, the UN voted 15-0 to insure Saddam's adherence to the resolution.
He has not proven to have done that. Where is the missing anthrax, etc, etc. France just has an
incredibly wimpy point of view and is reluctant to stand ground on anything. Why are we viewed
negatively? We have held up our side of the bargain and even gone above and beyond what was
originally agreed to. The world has not proven to Saddam that we are "serious", only the US has with
it's troop deployment. What kind of message does that send to the rest of the whackos out there that
think they can do what they please with no recourse?

Case closed gentlemen!

Would you please point out where I said "people" should be killed? I don't think I stated my view of
the war situation at all other than my disdain for France's atitude. If it weren't for US foreign
policy, most of Europe would be speaking German. Like it or not, we are the world's policeman. If
indeed, any regime is a threat to a free way of life it should be snuffed. Yes, it's sad that the
rest of the world including the wimpy French government have put us in a position that we have to
"look like the big bully". It's reality pal, face it. We're the strongest economy and military force
on the planet and I will guarantee you that if whatever country it is you live in is threatened,
we'd be the first to be begged to come bail your ass out.

Maybe we should just put a big goddam fence around the US and the rest of you poor bastards can bang
on rocks to communicate with each other...yes it was us that invented the computer as well.

"Freedom Fries" anyone? Dijon mustard with that?

Warren, trade the Brie for a Dunkin Donuts Chocolate Eclair...more empty carbohydrates to burn off
in the hot California sun.
