That, I suppose, is why France bankrupred itself to save our Revolution,
and then, a century later, gifted us with our greatest (actually our
only great) piece of public art.  Or why that echt-European, G.W.F. Hegel,
concluded his *Philosophy of History* with the statement that to
see the future his successors would have to look to "the forests
of North America."
