Even further confirms my opinion that most French "intellectuals"
are conformist windbags. Interesting excerpt:
"M Bruno's views, published in the newspaper Libération,
has sparked an angry backlash from Potter fans in France,
where the four novels have sold more than a million copies."
Reminds me of my time in France. I thought I'd spend time
taking in some of the "local cinema" long touted by Parisian
intellectuals. *Yawn*. No wonder most French - to the horror
of the chattering classes - prefer American movies (emphasis
on the "to move" root of the word "movie").
