July 03, 2003The Missing FlagsWell, it seems that there was more to this story than first appeared. The Dissident Frogman has posted some updates and clarifications on his site, and others have weighed in as well. From them it appears that ill intentions were not rampant, though some questions have been raised that merit some thought and forthright answers. So, for now it appears that this was not a deliberate slight and while there are plenty of reasons to dislike the french government and boycott french products, this is not one of them. Go read more, and I may post some more on this as the dust settles and facts come out. That is the beauty of the blogosphere. Things get brought forward, discussed, facts presented, and we can learn from them, change our minds, and make sound decisions. And, changes, updates, and corrections can and do get posted. While I still have some questions about this entire incident and what has truly happened, it is good to know that the worst case was not the true case in this event.
