&gt; Let&#39;s also include Longwood Farm in St Helena as a<br/>
&gt; non-sovereign foreign territory.  It&#39;s a French farm<br/>
&gt; where Napoleon died in British territory.  I think<br/>
&gt; Catudal also mentions a radio station and a war<br/>

 </span></blockquote>The war memorial, would that be the &quot;Neue Wache&quot;, <br/>
where East-German soldiers stood guard on West-<br/>
Berlin territory? Does anybody have more information<br/>
on this?<br/>
<br/>
Where was the radio station, please?<br/>

About tripoints: I&#39;m not at all versed on tripoints,<br/>
and have no live experience at all (yet..), but I<br/>
can&#39;t help noticing a subtle difference between<br/>
points when I look at a European map.<br/>
<br/>
Obviously there are wet and dry ones, there are<br/>
those that are not precisely determined (am I<br/>
right about that? I think of Austria-Switzerland-<br/>
Germany), and there are those that are repeated.<br/>
There are for example two Austria-Liechtenstein-<br/>
Switzerland tripoints, and two Spain-Andorra-<br/>
France tripoints.<br/>
<br/>
Do you tripointologists do this kind of categorization<br/>
at all? It should be interesting to hear some of<br/>
you elaborate on the matter.<br/>
