Thanks for the warning. I just arrived in Maastricht (via train from Brussels), and I did notice quite a few people, mostly middle aged men, standing around looking idle in places where you would not expect people waiting for trains to stand. Your warning might very well have saved me or others from having the same experience.

And they were middle-age men. AFTER the fact I learned from a rail person that the Paris and Brussels train stations have the worst reg for theft. I stopped all my cards, my new corp card is SUPPOSE to be waiting for me in the hotel come Sunday, and friends are helping me out here. They tried to take $600 from my MC, but I had not enabled that card for EU use, and MC blocked the transaction. Amex and Discover cards are not so usable here in EU, whew. So sad bit of warning to all and sundry who are planning on taking trains to Maastricht. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
