Not only is this my first July 4 out of the country, but I'm spending it in *France.* I bet this goes on my permanent record.
France had a huge part in our struggle for independence, so you're good. Visit Lafayette's grave while you're there. The guy was almost as big a founding father as Washington (I think Washington considered him his son).

Interesting, and spooky given that I've just seen a TV piece about this. Andy as you're in the UK at the moment, you might want to check it out for yourself on 4oD (TV Channel 4's online video service): http://www.channel4.com/program.... They speak to someone in China who claimed to have run a gold farming company and was disrupted by Blizzard's mass banning last year.
