were a lot different than their eBay customers or postal service. Perhaps it is only French eBay customers that are arrogant and rude, because I found none of that on my travels for business.

I drove from southern Netherlands, with our Dutch Quality Manager, and drove through Belgium, Luxembourg, and into France. We stopped at Nancy for lunch at and Irish Pub (Bless'em) and then drove on to Muenster, where we had our rooms waiting. We had dinner at a small restaurant and I explained to our Colmar plant manager, I would like to eat something local, including a cheese course of Muenster, and, perhaps, other local cheeses.

The waitress, who owned the restaurant with her husband, was thrilled I wanted to eat local food, including the newly fresh Alsace wine. She couldn't have been nicer to use, and that goes for all of the people along the way, and at the plant.

I don't know what it is, but I just will NEVER, EVER, do eBay to France.
