Somethings that strike me now after this marathon.
A wry note.
The
time taken from accident to report seems roughly normal for the French.
As usual no sense of proportion or anticipation of problems & adopting immediate solutions.
Instead it's left to the relatives of the deceased to continue to 2nd guess the "what if" scenerios just like when the survivors froze to death at Mt St Odile.
The tragedy has primarily been blamed on

This company could face liquidation over this latest of many fiascos.
If they continue to operate, who is going to bale them out this time?, or will they merely go for the standard French rebranding exercise for unpopular, unsuccessful or plain lethal companies eg*. ...
Let's not forget the current French government doesn't have any money.
Is it going to be hived onto the insurance industry or who is going to be behind coming clean for a change?
