Although my French skills have suffered greatly 
since I got out of college. . . No one in the US 
speaks French unless you get up near Quebec 
province and even then it's rare. I'm very glad I 
can still read it decently well! ^_^  Helps feed 
my addiction to Arsene Lupin stories! ^_^

Many Sharp Smiles,
