If you really want Michel Cluizel's Noir Infini, I found they are still in
stock at Chocosphere. The regular bars are out of stock (back in 6/5/04,
they say), but the "Noir Infini Squares" are in stock for $12 per.

Haven't tried this yet myself, but hey, I'm in chocolate heaven already what
with having Chocosphere here in my home town! I picked up a selection of
chocolate for my mom for Mother's Day last week, from their warehouse
will/call.

What I >am< working on, is an Excel spreadsheet of all the chocolates I've
tried and my "take" on them. The chart is getting rather large. At some
point I'll have to forsake Chocosphere to buy the chocolates they don't
carry...
