I discovered on Monday that in my absence they’d dug up an important intersection in the center of Brussels. It’s literally about 500m from my office and was causing quite some congestion on both Monday and Tuesday. A new perspective…

“Rudeness is out, and civility is the new rule in an uncertain world”, so declares the Economist newspaper of February 14th 2009 in an article entitled ‘Manners maketh the businessman’.
