Strike!

The French certainly know how to strike. There have been "manifestations" going on for the past two weeks. Nothing too serious has happened in Aix but it is fun to sit in class and hear people shouting and clapping outside. Poor Becky hasn't had class for the past two weeks. The French university is closed. I hear there is a special student committee in French universities for organizing student strikes.

I'd also like to mention that Sunday was the first day of spring. This is a big deal.
