Gary, it looks like you were playing poker with Metro tickets, and that Antoine was trying hard to conceal his glee at getting a good hand!
More seriously, thanks for putting a face to one of our regular names.

Peter, I don't think you have to worry about Antoine's English language skills. I had a nice meeting with him in Paris in August, he is very fluent and he has a very interesting background. He was a french naval aviator but also served with the U.S. Navy aboard a U.S. carrier where he got his call sign "Kermit" as in "Kermit the frog," an affectionate moniker bestowed by his American fellow aviators. He is an airline pilot and English is the language used worldwide in aviation. I have attached a photo of Kermit.
