Re: France
Bruce ... I'm sure you're a very nice person really who just manages to keep his nicer side, which has atrophied, rather well hidden.
To set the record straight .. you started all this about Lend-Lease when you posted ....

This detour into off-topic, of yours, sent us down the road of dickering over Lend-Lease.
Which you claimed was a gift.
Which was actually a 60 year post-war loan.
All made more robust by a bit of mutual bickering.
This is my final post on the matter .. I am exiting the stage to clear it for you so everyone can be impressed with your debating skills.
You contribution to cogent debate

Unlike you I don't make personal attacks on people only on their arguments. However for this one message only I will make an exception.
Life is far too short to waste time on sad, bitter, mendacious individuals whose idea of a logical discussion is to either misrepresent or deny what is said or flit down irrelevant dead ends and sling gratuitous insults.
There are people on this forum who can construct robust, coherent and logical arguments to support their case but unfortunately you are not one of them.
This sad, bitter, mendacious individual is making her final post. There are other places to go. The discussion elsewhere is far better. As is the friendship. I enjoy them far more. There's a few like you on here now who just bully their way through threads, are generally obnoxious and arrogant, a case of forceful character rather than a forceful argument (or intellect)... and sadly, a few rather nice members have faded away of late.
