21/11 NOT 9/11. ON 21 SEPTEMBER, 2001, THERE WAS A MASSIVE BLAST AT THE AZF CHEMICAL FACTORY IN TOULOUSE, FRANCE. 31 PEOPLE DIED, THE EXPLOSION COULD BE HEARD 80 kms AWAY, 10% OF THE TOULOUSE POPULATION HAD TO BE EVACUATED. A TERRORIST ATTACK WAS SUSPECTED -- AND THIS WAS ONLY 12 DAYS AFTER 9/11 -- BUT NEVER PROVED. THE CLUB DE CARTOPHILES (POSTCARD COLLECTORS DEMIDI-PYRENEES PRODUCED A SERIES OF 'COMMEMORATIVE' (!) POSTCARDS

Cher Valentine Mark,   

je suis content que ces cartes Vous plaisent. Sur les cartes postales - la ville de Saint-Pétersbourg, qui en 1914 a été rebaptisée "Petrograd", plus tard par les communistes rebaptisés "Leningrad", puis à nouveau rebaptisée Saint-Pétersbourg.

"TYPICALLY CORSICAN" BORING POSTCARDS (from 1966)

1. THE YOUNG ONES: BUT HOW MANY -- 2, 3 OR 4?Well, it says that they are "typical", but it's not clear if that's a reference to the people and/or the donkeys.

Anyway, Corsica is "An oasis of beauty".

2. THE OLDER ONES -- BUT NOW WE ARE DOWN TO 2 OR 3
