As I wrote a few hours ago, I am an old man who has no barriers with younger peoples. I have young Internet correspondants from Russia, America and several european countries. All have the same problems: getting a good education, finding a well pay job according to their competences and not falling on traps propagated by cynical greedy opportunists. My advise to them is stay in your own country and wish that your decisions' makers have a vision for the future. Actually, if I was 20 years old I will prefer to live in Russia than France and many other places...Think Positive !!! Best regards. Jean-Claude Meslin
