I thought I might pass on a tidbit I picked up this weekend.

I was visiting with a young woman from France, and I casually
mentioned Asterix.  She said that she liked it, and that
everyone was wild about it in France, but that she could
not understand how the plays on words could be translated.

All that to the side, the most interesting thing she said
was that the Asterix books are used as textbooks in introductory
course in social economics, and other things.  Apparently
some of the concepts presented in Asterix are so clean and simple,
that they are very easy to teach from.


Thought you might be amused
GINO!

In the Milky Way galaxy,
In the Solar Sytem Sol
On the planet earth,
Beyond this, the path is unclear.
