Let me get this straight. You wrote Hemmoor instead of Kiel and you
blame the phone?
I'm here.
Hemmoor is (by Canadian & American standards) just down the road from
Kiel (about 120 km), abut half-way (as die Krahe flies) to Bremen.
Hemmoor is (among other things) the home of the Deutsches Zementmuseum
Hemmoor. (The Portland Cement Factory in Hemmoor provided the cement
for the building of the Statue of Liberty - yes, *the* Statue of
Liberty.)

One of the Portland Cement Factory quarries is now filled with water
and used as a scuba-diving center.

Perhaps Erin will tell us which of the aforementioned attractions
(note my 'among other things') is bringing her to Norddeutschland.
Chris Bruce
still in
Kiel, Germany
(and reachable at cblists@xxxxxxxx - although I will be off on a
dendrological seminar and 'out of touch' from 12-15 February)
