i'm curious to see my IQ on a test in french

And oh - I failed the big French IQ test on the web.
It goes like this:
http://www.lyonmag.fr made an article with a wine expert saying Nouveau Beaujolais wasn't wine but fruit juice, actually he sad it was "un vin de merde". The wine makers dragged the magazine in court and it was fined several million francs - enough to close the magazine once and for all.
The case was mentioned in The Times, NYT.com, etc.
I went to
http://www.lyonmag.fr to read the original article - and they kindly asked me to send in a short email to show my support for their case.
I was stupid enough to do just that - and since then I've been bombarded with 5-10 French spam messages every single day.
I've sent them several messages IN FRENCH telling them to stop spamming me. They haven't.
My conclusion: The French should have stayed with Minitel. It would have been better for them - and for the rest of us.
