Reliving fears from fiction
2004-10-06

#1  As the armada passes through the Straits of Gibraltar, panic sets in. French Riviera inhabitants begin fleeing north. The French president deploys armed forces along the coast. They are told to defend the country against the now imminent invasion of the poverty-stricken 1million from the Ganges. But their with ears glued to transistor radios, they heed Dufort's call not to oppose the landings. They desert en masse. Police open jail cells before shedding their uniforms and hotfooting it home to take care of their families.

Tipper,I thought you said this was fiction? Sounds pretty lifelike to me.
