aaaaahhhh voila un sujet qu'il est bon...

sujet number 1 de l'année qui fait se manifester la plus grande épidémie de "c'est mon choix donc j'ai raison" depuis qu'evelyne a arrêté...

très intéressant, malheureusement, donner mon avis ne ferait que plomber la qualité du débat <edit by hugo : de achtement haut niveau>. Donc je vous laisserais vous faire votre avis avec de saines lectures d'abord sur les plateaux non circulaires, on verra plus tard pour la contention... Et pis si vous voulez causer, y'a les mp...
