Maybe I'll just treat them the way they treated me when I lived over there. That means the Germans will still get some decent treatment but for the French, unless the frenchman is from Normandy, the "Frog" will get a cold reception!

It's interesting, the French that live in the swath between Le Mont St Michelle & Calais are extremely nice and honorable people, those that lived from Reims to Versaille were nice as well. Those in Paris were simply rude. The Germans, for the most part, were pretty fair people. Just the young ones really had it in for us Americans....

As for the boycott - what possible French products does one buy? All I can think of is boutique stuff (cheese, wine). I can't think of ANYTHING of substance that they make that Americans buy - other than some CAD modeling software and some computer games.
