Yes, don't spell Dumas wrong!

I have often wondered which Austrian I most resemble...tough, considering I am not a crusty aristocrat! Perhaps Schwarzenberg himself...diplomatic, caustious, and competent....

Cliff, how do they pronounce Dumas in Texas? Probably different than in Louisiana?

The great writer Alexander (Do mus) who was this man son and one of two great writers of French lit always pronounce it this way ! Now if I was a hayseed or a Jim Crow it might sound different!

Other than Tondu my hero is Marechal Lannes! Perhaps I should be Colin Lannes. Does not sound quite right :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Colonel Dumas I congratulate you on your new persona!
