Good article, but I really think the French are REALLY rude. They should be grateful that tourists visit their country, instead, just like their president Chiraq, they are rude and unfriendly. It has nothing to do with the smile, it is the general attitude. I have tried talking to French people with French words, which I have picked up with a book I carry at all times when in France. But still, most of them have been unfriendly and rude and some of them denied to assist me with directions etc. The greatest myth however is that Paris is a great city. I find it a stinking city filled with dog waste wherever you go. Now how is that for a Honest True Myth Buster
I dont think so!
