      acute delusional states, hallucinations, feelings of persecution (perceptions of being a victim of prejudice, aggression, or hostility from others) Sounds like most Frenchmen to me

      You cant outrun the world, but there is no harm in getting a head start Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time.

              Yes it is. Coders, however, are more susceptible to the OOP syndrome. :)

                                  Have you been to Paris? It's full of awful French people and once you've seen the Eiffel Tower, the Champs Elysees, had a baguette and taken pictures of all the white flags, you're done. :-)

                                    Visited the Musée d'Orsay, the Louvre, possibly taken in an opera or two, marvelled at the madness that is the road system round the Arc de Triomphe, then you're done.

                                      Visited the Musée d'Orsay, the Louvre, possibly taken in an opera or two, marvelled at the madness that is the road system round the Arc de Triomphe, then you're done.

                                      I was running out of room! I have driven in that lunatic asylum. However, I would say that it's not really any worse than Hyde Park Corner.

                                        Twenty tourists a year does not a syndrome make. Basically, all this describes is that insane people sometimes travel and sometimes lose their marbles at their destination. If the destination if famous or notorious, it's a syndrome, if the place is mundane, it's just crazy people going even more crazy.
