not so, faldage. The french connection is simply that many roman aquaducts, whose maintenance we were discussing, are located in france and maintained by the french. The Bush connection remains obscure to me.

Edit, to faldage below: See "thrown up in the middle ages then never repaired..." We were talking about structures from the middle ages and in "current" use --- and the same exist in france. QED. Surprised that this is a matter of such concern to you and to our newly-named re-user of the word praps.
