Ms. French might as well be a TER institution (a Washington institution, actually). If the French were all as welcoming of Americans, the geo-political world (the universe, for that matter) would be a much better place. Yes, I digress, and will get to the good stuff in a moment. But it's not hard to digress with this provider. She is as intelligent as they come (probably more so than the majority of what I suspect is an enormously well-educated crowd to begin with). She loves to opine on a variety of topics. And when you get that I can't believe what an amazing woman this is look, she'll change gears to remind you that politics can wait, and more pressing needs and desires should be attended to first . . .
