I should pull out the most shocking line: "Toutes les vignes et les terroirs finissent par se ressembler parce que les mauvaises levures indigènes utilisées cannibalisent les bonnes."

Bad indigenous yeasts cannibalize the good [read: non-indigenous] ones.

Wow.

the history of culture -- and science -- is that this shit is not won by debate. galileo galilei did not get to nuke teh pinheadz in debate, nor did he get to groove on an open-top, tickertape parade through downtown pisa. but the fact is that his shits made more sense, and that is what won through in the end.

same with teh hooch, n'est ce pas? the number of points that michel bettane or st james of teh sucklings "awards" teh bottlez can only have so much effect on the delish a marcel richaud puts in them.

that said, bettane's disinterested defense of the crying against the light of teh points dudes is impressive, as is his dedication to truth and justice -- up to a point. fact is that if the universe had a sense of humor, the eu would pass legislation encouraging people to poke the fat points-awarding cock monkeys with pointy sticks whenever they felt the urge. it would, after all, take some attention away from teh euro-crises, and it would be kind of fun to watch bettane take a sharp twig to the privates while employing his own special brand of pseudo-semantic-waffle-o-crap to defend every frenchman's right to prod him *right* there, because the law says that's what they can do...

but really, who gives a fuck? every time bettane opens his mouth on this, he draws attention to the position he wants everyone to ignore.

fail.

marcel richaud ftw!
