Here are some notes I typed onto Obisidan:
  • The French Code for France is IDEA.
  • The Canadian Code for Canada is to KEEP. Canadians learnt from the beginning to use what they call “winter energy”, to act so as to conserve as much energy as possible.
  • A luxury item in Italy might be a necklace or a gorgeously designed handbag, but it is not a refrigerator.
  • A key phrase in the French shopping experience is “ca ne se fait pas,” meaning “One isn’t supposed to do that”. French women learn the rules of life by shopping with their mothers and grandmothers, and they become acculturated as they do.
