Cam, I can tell you that I have been in your shoes too, and also decided to keep a low profile. Being french, and living in the US and loving Porsches, it has been very distressing for me to see that all these guys, whom I mostly respect and appreciate, have taken such an anti-french stance, cristallized all their hatred at one country that they for most of them have never visited. I have tried to communicate my views, almost against all. I have tried not to react at basically stupid insults such as wine drinking monkeys or smelly people. Although I have to admit sometimes, you have to call a moron a moron...I have done it, and it felt good...I have been rude, and it is true that the french can sound rude when they say their truth without British hypocarcy, which I beleive the americans inherited...The bootom line is that it is a lost cause to try to convince people, and the truth lies in our hearts. I really understand how you feel...
