Fwench Pwofessors Find Life in U.S. Hard to Resist
By MAÏA DE LA BAUME Published: November 21, 2010 * "PARIS — Academics are increasingly leaving France for the United States, which carries the risk of a “brain drain” in France, according to a report this month by an independent study group. As an example: Olivier Blanchard, one of France’s best-known economists, teaches in the United States at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The report, by the Institut Montaigne, a leading independent research group in Paris, found that academics constitute a much larger percentage of French émigrés to the United States..."

Jigsaw A relevant response posted elsewhere on the net: "I've met quite a few of these socialist cow-pies throughout Europe; they usually advertise their presence as subtly as a K-Mart blue light special that announces they will gladly regurgitate the latest rants from Michael Moore's blog in exchange for the chance at a sloppy handjob in a dimly-lit, feces encrusted stand-up toilet. The bulk of their political knowledge seems based around bumper sticker slogans, and quite frankly, you stand a better chance of engaging in a fruitful political discussion with the rear end of a beat down pinto covered in "US out of my uterus" stickers double-parked outside of a vegan bakery in Berkley. At least the car is more likely to have had a decent shave. Their alliances shift with the times, depending on what outrageous outrage has pricked their conscience this week, as do their self-given titles. Do you seriously expect much intelligence from someone who describes themselves as an anti-gender ecofeminist whose grasp of economics is considerably lower than that of a five year old entrepreneur selling lemonade on a hot day? I expect neither intelligence nor introspection from this lot. As far as I'm concerned, Europe can have them." |

Fwench Pwofessors Find Life in U.S. Hard to Resist; those illegalAliens in BentGay's Uranus must be itchy
Collective Human Experience
http://kangaroocourtaustralia.x24hr.com 'We're all in the same boat and we all are going to catch the same hell from the same man. He just happens to be a white man. All of us have suffered here, in this country, political oppression at the hands of the white man, economic exploitation at the hands of the white man, and social degradation at the hands of the white man. Now in speaking like this, it doesn't mean that we're anti-white, but it does mean we're anti-exploitation, we're anti-degradation, we're anti-oppression. And if the white man doesn't want us to be anti-him, let him stop oppressing and exploiting and degrading us. Whether we are Christians or Muslims or nationalists or agnostics or atheists, we must first learn to forget our differences' -Malcom X |

So why does the whole world learn English instead of French or ...? I remember hearing, in some class, that French was the language of diplomacy in the 1700s? and was even spoken in the German court. It fell out of favor (maybe with Napoleon, but I forgot.) German was the language of science up to the 1930s when a lot of their scientists left. English was the choice of a UN panel to be used in all international aircraft communications, and, being the only language mandatory "exported," it took foothold. A lot of school systems, worldwide, now have "English as a Second Language" courses, which are mandatory. My niece goes to China each year to teach, and they cannot get enough English teachers. An aside, in China, is that there are so many dialects that it is possible that some Chinese cannot talk to one another in Chinese, but they have to use a third language. |
