Didn't you see him 'live' last Friday? ;) <br />I learnt many interesting things from him concerning the Internet area. I found the two journalists asking him pretty good too, weren't they? <br />Kind of refreshing and pleasant listening time for me. Have a good time there and share a little ;)Florenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-45107294561564411812009-12-07T18:20:41.535+01:002009-12-07T18:20:41.535+01:00Cool.

I guess that'll be the 3rd different look for Les Halles in my lifetime although to be honest, I barely remember it the way it was before. <br /><br />Baldwin described Les Halles in one of his novels, if I'm not mistaken, and I remember that more than the place itself, but I do remember the Marais pre- gentrification.

Anyway, Les Halles as it was was abandoned, removed to another location (Rungis) and turned into Forum des Halles in the early 1970s. It will now turn into something else. <br /><br />Wishing all the best for the new project.Tall Garyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130518604439054014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-40714434754308987062009-12-07T08:13:47.682+01:002009-12-07T08:13:47.682+01:00This is so frostily elegant!
