SUPERLATIVE WELCOMING OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED Sorry to be such a spoilsport, but that is "lunette verTe", not "verde". I just know becauce I got corrected by a Swiss member who stated he has a Swiss passport and speaks fluently French and that he was NOT to be argued with  Fair enough IMHO (which does NOT stand for "I Must Have Oyster" but for "In My Humble Opinion"). Sorry about my bad sense of humour
