%    soc.culture.british, soc.culture.celtic, soc.culture.nordic etc.

%    I hope there is any interest for such a newsgroup.

	Hi.  I think it would be neat to talk about the French culture,
especially about how other countries that have French speaking people
relate to one another and to France.
	Being from Canada and having a French-Canadian wife (very different
culture and dialect than France from what I've heard) it would be interesting
to see how other countries have handled bilingualism.  Canada is not doing
such a hot job right now.
	Thanks
