11:30 AM -- Red Panda is hanging out at Light Reading's Future of Telecom boondoggle in olde London[e] towne this week, where he was entertained by the fire notice on the back of his hotel room door.

Always alert to the informational needs of French visitors ("Frenchie bastards," to use the local lingo) the evacuation instructions end with this helpful legend. Naturally, the notice is in English (or a rough approximation of it):

"Visitors from France: A copy of these instructions is available in French in your desk draw."
