Wow, you joined this forum on my birthday ! Please don't ask !
We do have things in common:
1. I do drink, but will never be drunk ( enough ).
2. I am the immigrant in your french milieu and have many family ( wife etc ). They barely speak english. My wife learned my ( german/austrian ) language better than I did hers.
In order not to be off topic: I do have green's from rather unexpected sources, but not in exploration.
Bonne soiree
