RE>> RE>You obviously do *not* mean Novosibirsk, do you? :-) No, that would be Mariinsk. That's 600km from Novosibirsk on the TransSib and that's the place where all trains stop, because they change the locomotive, because the electricity changes there. Five years ago it sometimes took me an hour to get a phone call there from germany on a windy day. This got better, but Internet is still a problem there given the state of telephone lines :-/ NB: our laboratory was one of the first e-mail users in Novosibirsk (definitely the first in our Institute). We got mail through a modem dial-up from, I think, the Institute for Math, which in turn had a dial-up to Kurtschatov in Moscow, which in turn had a permanent line to Finland. Was kind of funny :-) harti
