Psst!! The Euro is still undervalued. According to what I know, when the
Euro was introduced it was supposed to be €1.00=US$1.14. It still hasn't
reached returned to that point.

There's no such thing as a French franc. France uses the euro as its
currency, like most other countries in the European Union (excluding the
basket cases admitted yesterday, of course).

I'm still wondering where Miguel got these data. The emplanements of
US flagged carriers at CDG may have see less of a decline than LHR (at
least based on transportaition sector European data), but I can't see
why this automatically means that tourist traffic is down less.

My data don't show this to be true - in fact, on April 17, 2000, the
Dollar/Euro was 1.04 and on the same date in 1999 it was 0.93. In
2002, it was 1.13. In 1995 (in the middle of the Clinton boom) it was
0.75 to the dollar (based on the mathematical model) - in 2000, it
hovered around 1 to 1.

Seems the low point of the dollar coincided with the Clinton
administrations successes in the first three years in office - 1995.
If you want to suggest that currency devaluation is indicative of
moronic government, might I suggest Mr. Clinton?

    > It's not the French economy that's evaporating...

Too funny. It almost sounds like you are suggesting that relative
exchange rates are singularly appropriate proxies for economic growth?

How familiar are you with the current economic indicators for France,
the Eurozone, and the US? Considering the previous data, I would
hazard a guess - not very?

May I suggest you stick to English. At least if you expect to make sense.
Or was that a proposition?

Some of us are happy that France among other had the guts to take a stand
against insanity BTW.

Some of us are even trying to boycoytt stuff from countries which
participated or supported the insanity.
