Anyone been there lately, the past year or so? Just wondering if it is worth the effort to get there. That is, is looks like a lovely village in beautiful mountains but, more importantly, pipes stuff?

The French love Budweiser?!
Yes. Or at least younger crowds used to. Night club shot from a friend of mine, he's a French, everyone drinking Bud and smoking Marlboro. Then I tried their beer. Yeah, Bud is better. American cigs are much easier to smoke. And Zippo is considered cool item. I think they are just too proud to say anything nice about America.

Marlboros and Zippos I can understand. But Budweiser, a beer that is like making love in a canoe? When they're right next to Belgium and Germany? There's no accounting for taste.
