Thank good...Thank you for a fascinating article. <br /><br />Thank goodness that we Americans are protected from silly, archaic concepts like <i>la gloire</i> by our "exceptionalism." *<br /><br />I look forward to your future posts about Louus XIV.<br /><br />(* "American exceptionalism" is generally defined by Americans as "we're the best because we have no rules about beliefs <b>except 'shun all "isms"</b> which sound foreign, complicated, or require that you leave your easy chair' i.e. <i>Herbie's violent hatred of both communism and socialism best exemplifies <b>real</b> patriotism !</i>)X.
