a bit off topic, but I must praise the French

I've been watching http://france24.com/en coverage, and I'm very impressed about the openness of the French to publicly admitting mental health issues and the eagerness of the French to offer mental health care.

I wish we Americans were more like that. I'm sure not all French are this way, but this is my impression so far.

I hope you all are well, or at least getting better. I am doing ok. Best wishes.
