Hello: For those folks who are contemplating a research, or other, trip to Switzerland in the next year or two, consider that there is to be an Expo in 2002 in the area near Neuchatel. Well, actually in the region of Neuchatel. Four sites are planned, the others being Yverdon-les-Bains, Murten, and Bienne/Biel. All four sites are to be along the respective waterfronts. Information about the Expo can be obtained on-line at: <http://www.expo2001.ch/>. There isn't much at this site yet, but I feel sure that, as time grows closer, more information about exhibits, events, and other aspects of the Expo will show up. Swiss organizers originally had planned to have the Expo in 2001, but adequate financing was not available, so permission was obtained to delay it for a year. Yours, Hubert Paulson
