Well thanks! Sorry Bruno.
That's one problem with the Internet - you never do know which parts of names
are personal and which are family names. Usually with European names I have a
good idea but I still try to avoid using them until I'm certain - or I slip up.
"M. Ducrot" would have worked better :-). Here, French-Canadians don't use that
convention.
