< ... badgering and bullying Yiwu, etc... I think it is time for you to move on < Good point. Enough of the Theory of WTC [wealth, talent, charm]. That little racist megalomaniac, Yiwu the Completely Mad, needs attention.

PS: Who the heck is Voltaire and what's Candide? I'll ask Google. There was a Sier called Voltaire but I don't think that's who you mean. Hmm, that's funny, I thought Voltaire was French. But this is in Anglais. literature.org Note the causal relationships reference - he was obviously a scientist or engineer. <On her way back she happened to meet the young man; she blushed, he blushed also; she wished him a good morning in a flattering tone, he returned the salute, without knowing what he said. The next day, as they were rising from dinner, Cunegund and Candide slipped behind the screen. The miss dropped her handkerchief, the young man picked it up. She innocently took hold of his hand, and he as innocently kissed hers with a warmth, a sensibility, a grace-all very particular; their lips met; their eyes sparkled; their knees trembled; their hands strayed. The Baron chanced to come by; he beheld the cause and effect, >

Here's another link, avec le francais: humanities.uchicago.edu < Le Baron ... voyant cette cause & cet effet ...
[The Baron ... seing this cause and this effect ...],
1787 edition
> I note again the reference to cause and effect. Voltaire was obviously a famous French scientist. I also note the wardrobe malfunction in that photo. Such problems occur not just in Superbowls but way back then - hmmm, there's obviously a market for more robust clothing to avoid such failures. I wonder whether that was the instigation of the French Revolution. The Americans got quite wound up about La Toya's and Justin's wardrobe malfunction and her brother is in court as I type! There is revolution in the air. The gathering at Davos is an omen. Buffett and $ill Gates are short the US$.

oops, you've distracted me from Yiwu the Mad. Now it's time for a nice cup of tea. I'll deal with her later.
