CAMILLE DESMOULINS IS 250 TODAY!

I don't actually have anything to commemorate the event, sadly. However I would like to encourage you to spare a thought (and perhaps a few words, if you feel so inspired) for this man who slipped into history - and more than a few peoples' hearts in the past 250 years - against the odds. I could never express how grateful I am for it.

Sorry - a tangent just waylaid me. I think what I meant to say is that my French just isn't up to coming to a reasonable conclusion about La Terreur et La Vertu. There you go, you do me a long reasoned post on Robespierre and compromise and I come up with twitchy Robespierre is hot.
