December = Decembre in French

Pie · 12-06-2007, 01:20 PM

John, what's the wtf? I ain't getting it.

classicman · 12-06-2007, 01:37 PM

thanks pie - I couldn't figure it out either , but was too embarrassed to ask.

Bullitt · 12-06-2007, 01:44 PM

I was thinking he thought December was misspelled, and I was trying to point out that Decembre is French for December.

From here:

Quote:

Dec. 6 - Remembrance and action on violence against women
'Violence is far less likely between equals. . .therefore, equality and respect of all people is a crucial concept. . .women have not yet achieved equality, and this must be redressed.' - Witness at the Canadian Panel on Violence Against Women, 1993

Ottawa (4 Dec. 2007) - On Dec. 6, 1989, a deranged gunman entered L'Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal. After segregating the female students from the men, he began firing at the female engineering students.

On that day, 14 young women lost their lives to violence. The event became known as the Montreal Massacre and has become symbolic in the fight to end violence against women. In 1991, Canada's Parliament declared December 6th a National Day of Mourning and the National Day to End Violence Against Women.

I remember the massacre, so I was a little puzzled by the WTF for its memorial.
I accept I could be missing something though.

Flint · 12-06-2007, 04:12 PM

WTF, John?

Pie · 12-06-2007, 04:43 PM

(Now that we've made a big flippin' deal about it, I bet poor John is regretting the whole thing. It probably was the spelling of "December".)

Sundae · 12-06-2007, 05:04 PM

Ah John gives us so much pleasure in this thread, I for one wouldn't say a word if it was a slip up.

bigw00dy · 12-06-2007, 05:21 PM

Finally after 285 pages, 4262 responds....... we have our first, true WTF.

We may all thing John is misunderstood, be WE are misunderstanding!

I have figured it out.

Happy Monkey · 12-06-2007, 06:12 PM

I see something.

Cloud · 12-06-2007, 06:57 PM

well, I can't figure out what's wrong there

Elspode · 12-06-2007, 07:37 PM

Its the bee...something about the bee.

Happy Monkey · 12-06-2007, 08:26 PM

Not the bee.
Use your puzzle skills.
Don't expect anything particularly big.
Emphasize the pattern.
