Lon, you know more then I do, but then again I'm not Swiss ;-)

We visit the town of La Chaux-de-Fonds were Chevrolet was born last 
year on our Holiday. Not especially because of Chevrolet but there's 
also a big museum on clocks and watches. There may be somethings in the 
town referring to him but we didn't see them. I guess it's been to long 
for most Swiss people, they have new heroes like Nicholas G. Hayek the 
inventor of Swatch and inspirator for the small Smart car.
