Carl, I'm still trying to find out how many pavilions we have inside CP The secretariat has a database of 885 administred pavilions: Of which are not included :
So I guess you can add another: 494 Pavilions. So it's grand total of around : 1400 pavilions. How I find those numbers for those countries: I went to the site and have a quick global count. And good writting for the rest... Phil BTW, there is still some log analysis running since friday :-) t 06:44 AM 11/5/96 -0500, you wrote: ->HOw's this look: -> -> -> -> -> As of October 30, 1996, the Internet 1996 World Exposition has 878 ->pavilions from over 70 regions/countries of the world.
