What can describe the Paris Commune of 1871?

It was the revolt of the population of Paris against Napoleon III's surrender to Prussia in 1871. After the subsequent establishment of the so-called Third Republic of France, the Commune's mostly socialist and anarchist-inspired leaders refused to abide by the terms of the peace treaty concluded between the Republic's Government and Prussia and surrender power back to the French republican authorities. Because of that, the Commune became a revolt against the French Republic itself.

Without Napoleon III's earlier total overhaul of Paris - replacing a giant maze of narrow and winding streets with broad boulevards - the French army might have had a near-impossible job reconquering Paris. As it was, it still took over a month for the French army to regain control of the city.

Are Airships a Solution For Air Travel?

Yes they are. Back in the 1930s they were not abandoned for any other reason, other than that governements (especially in Germany) wanted to turn investments into technologies that could be used in military applications and the airship was not one. Unfortunately for these types of industry, technical solutions are applied only if a greater mass of investments can flow in and that does not happen as it could threaten the interests of large multinational aircraft companies - it is a huge sector afterall.

Just think of it. An airship is no rocket science, in fact it is a technical achievement very easily reached even by relatively low-tech countries. A ballon and 4-5 motors, let it be fed with all the tech. you need, it will still be less expensive than the average aircraft. From there on maintenance costs are almost down a... simple motor maintenance (!!)... you need not costly airports, it can land anywere, it can thus be used just as a bus or a boat, it is much more environmentally friendly and can run with all-electric motors (or biodiesel alternatives etc.). In a few words it could be an idea solution for a developing country that wants to connect remote areas, avoiding helicopters which are both expensive and dangerous (are not for high mileage and frequent travelling). If speed is not a question then airships are a vey much valid solution.

Downturns are the low speed and the weather factor (strong winds affect them just like ships). Plus the maintenance hangar which has to be big enough but then in a country you only need to have 1 such center where airships go for maintenance, you do not need them in every place.

Storage lockers in the montparnasse train station?

Yes, there are storage lockers in addition to a manual left-luggage office - that is a, CONSIGNE AUTOMATIQUE as well as a simple CONSIGNE. HOWEVER, whether these facilities are available depends on the status of the national security scheme called 'Plan vigipirate'. This was at red over the New Year, went down to Yellow in February, rose again to Orange in March.... Yellow is minimum risk, scarlet is maximum. Closing automatic lockers probably starts at red, so expect the lockers to exist but not necessarily to be in use. Helpful, innit?
