Thanks Frank.

Great idea.

But, why are they called French flags?  They apprear to only have one

Anyone know?

You know, I was just thinking that when I read your post. Astonishing

I don't know - let's have some guesses..

Maybe something along the lines of the reason the English used to refer to a certain disease as "The French Disease" while the French, oddly enough, chose to refer to the same malady as "The English Disease"?
