Don't you believe it. Over the last year we have seen a steady downward drift in the percentage of our traffic which goes to the US -- a 20% change over the last year, I think.
Hmmm, I wonder how much of this drop can be attributed to the closure of the Louvre in Paris and the Delft Institute of Technology closing the 17th floor to US sites..... Larry
