    I would need to start doing a lot of illegal narcotics to begin understanding these weird Frenchified cartoons, right?

    Oh, c’mon he’s clearly become caught… in a web… of, um… and there’s a satellite, and… something about cellphones?

    Yeah, I’m going to go get drunk, now.

    Its a social satire regarding the fact that cell phones started as a tool to free people up, but become traps of their own, and now we are trapped to the devices.
    Not THAT complicated!

    NO. It’s a commentary on how the old concentric circle model of cell phone transmissions were safe, and how the new web based phone transmissions interrupt gravity in the immediate vicinity of towers. it’s wreaking havoc all over Europe.

    Seriously, you people need to read the foreign press a little bit more.

    You can go to Yahoo International, select any of the many countries listed, and Yahoo will bring up current press/news from within that country. Then select a page you wish to read, and go to a translator through Google, or wherever, and there’s a good chance you end up with a translation that makes enough sense to convey what’s going on. You do need to know some geography so you know which country you want to get news from, so you can click on the country name. But most of us can manage that much!

    I like this one, it’s a good allegory on how we became prisonners of telecoms.

    I guess it takesd a french to understand it.
    Although I’m about as much french as you guys are british.

    Oldlegodad, of course it is, because I rock, not just because I am a Ballbreaker with a Stiff Upper Lip, which I got from slipping on Black Ice, when I came Back in Black from the Highway to Hell. So just know For Those About to Rock I Salute You!

    Digital cell phone transmissions interupt gravity?

    I think I’ll wait until US media reports this find.
