Oops.  I spelled Fermi wrong.  Fermi Labs is a collection of big labs around
the world; Argonne is just one of their facilities (I think there are five
main ones; Argonne is the only one in the US but it's also the first) Plus,
element 114 was discovered at the Argonne branch.  If you live near it you can
go visit; they have a little tour thing on weekends.  It's very interesting if
you like all the science involved.
