Of all the European countries affected by
the Violent Unknown Event, France has only a known total of five hundred and
twelve victims, and on investigation, it seems that only seven of these were French
by birth. The VUE Commission have put forward
various reasons for this apparent immunity and rejected them all. The Aerospace
Nationale have suggested that France had already paid its quota, and an
excessive quota, of flight victims in the early days of experimental flying.
[Interviewer]: "Was there anything
wrong with the car?"
The Italian Institute of Languages have
hypothesised that the French language itself is responsible.
[Interviewer]: "Had you been here
before?"
[Loosely Fallbute]: "No. It was the
first time and this is the second."
Astraham and Loosely Fallbute
were touring
on holiday in central France at the time of the Event. On the night of June the
12th they were driving on a little-used road near Voile d'Argent when their car
stopped. The clock on the dashboard showed 11.41, Greenwich Mean Time.
[Interviewer]: "Is this the place
where it happened?"
[Loosely Fallbute]:
"Yes. The engine stalled and the car stopped."
Astraham Fallbute, formerly a designer of
sports facilities, is now a designer specializing in hospital
equipment. Loosely Fallbute, formerly
a cosmetician, is now a catalogue researcher.
