It is not in Amsterdam, but in Leiden.
I knew that, but 99.9% of the people have probably never heard of
Leiden, so considering that Amsterdam is 15 minutes away I listed the

that can easily work both ways ;)
Whoever has taken an elementary course in physics has learned about the Leiden

yes and yes...
the grand-grandfather of modern capacitors! :-)
never thought about that aspect... plus, the town's name was just a town's name

was curious as to the location even though i will probably never travel outside
the US again...
so while 2 + 2 = 4, i only had 2 + 0 ;)
no offense intended...
