The best reason for protest is romance said my waiter as he saw me snapping pictures of the pro- Tibet protest. In fact that was how Jean met his wife many years ago. The word is that France will boycott the China Olympics. As I hung around and snapped photos I did notice a lot of fraternization going on in the ranks. Street life in Lyon is theater and nothing like a cause to act upon. A loaf of bread, jug of wine and thou, and of course a good cause, up Tibet.
