On October 4, I had the pleasure of participating in the annual Austrian Science Talks in North America, held this year in Chicago, and talking about the coming elections and their possible impact on science in the US. However, before moving to the topic of elections, let me comment briefly on my view of science in Austria. 

Some 43 years ago, I was the Stellvertretender Wissenschaftsattaché (Deputy Science Attaché) in the American Embassy in Bonn. In addition to Germany, our office had responsibility for Austria. And so one day early in my tour, we traveled to Vienna to see what was happening in Austrian science. Returning to Bonn, the view was unanimous, “Da in Oesterreich ist gar nix los.” (“Not much going on in Austria.”).
