Ma Bell, Pouilly Fuisse, what's next?

Welcome to the age of revocable truth.
Within a few pages of today's New York Times, I learned that AT&T, Ma Bell herself, is getting out of the home telephone business and French winemakers are deeply concerned about drastic decline in wine consumption among their countrymen.
French vinterns  want the fruit of the vine/ nectar of the gods declared "nutritive" so that it can be advertised like other food products and avoid those pesky warning labels.
So far, the government is only willing to go as far as "condiment."
 Makes you want to call a friend and invite them over for a liquid lunch. These times they ARE a-changing. Next thing you know they'll be telling us there was no tie between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda.
