did i say defiance?

Quick note related to my last entry about defiance: I could endlessly argue here about how much of what I perceived is a question of wealthiness, or Swiss specifities, etc. And still seem bland and naive.

The fact it, that was just not my point. As the last paragraph points out, "where I wanted to bring you to and where I'll stop" is not the few --certainly debatable, possibly naive-- byproducts of my thoughts. I'm no sociologist, and have a long way to go before being able to tackle such a complex subject in a short entry like a blogpost.
Where I wanted to bring you to is a book. A fantastic book backed by hard data that I read months ago, whose conclusions were revived by a trip to France. I hope some of you will read it and appreciate it as much as I did.

Anyway, thanks for your mail feedback, ideas, suggestions, punches and other high kicks about this post. Much appreciated. Really.
