The only time I met Vivianne, she was quite pleasant. She is biased with 
reason. She lives in France and is likely more French than American by 
now. That's her problem not ours. I enjoy Alsace because it isn't really 
French. The Alsatians are Alsatian first and French second. Read their 
history. They have been German in odd years and French in even.

Patronizing?? I can show you patronizing. Neither her comment to me nor 
mine to her was patronizing. I don't expect to change you or your like 
anyway.

BTW, we just spent a day in Gruyere. They speak French, German, English, 
and God knows what without looking down their noses at anyone.
