Must have cross-posted with you: had exactly that in another response.
It's a topic that's interested me for years: I was born in Quebec and still have family there though I grew up elsewhere, and visited Ireland for several months in the late 1980s (primarly Dublin and Wexford, but also Galway). It was still a relatively devout place at that time, but I got a really wierd vibe from it that I can't describe other than to say it seemed hollow. I could tell it was headed for a Quebec-style nosedive, even back then.
