I know in France they don't forget, if only to keep the revenue stream from tourists going

Hi Hanno

Good Point, you can over do it with to much coverage on TV and newspapers people stop looking and listening. We had the same problem with the 100th anniversary of the ANZAC Gallipoli landings.

Cheers

Tony
