In france, AOL is not AOL-Time-Warner. At the origin, AOL-America has started 
a service in france under the aol-France name. Then he has sold the company 
to a water utility: Compagnie Generale des Eaux. This one has been renamed 
Vivendi, with a telephone sector called Cegetel. AOL-France is a subsidiary 
of Cegetel, itself a part of Vivendi, the buyer of the Universal studios. So, 
AOL in France has nothing to do with AOL in the US. It is the Internet 
service provider of Vivendi-Universal, the second world communication company 
behind AOL-Time-Warner, the number one.

I hope the things are clear now, even if I don't see the relevance to 
cryonics :-)
