Default The Switzyland joins Schengen

<http://www.lemonde.fr/web/article/0,1-0@2-3214,36-658605,0.html>

"""
Oui, les Suisses ont dit oui à Schengen par référendum. Ce référendum
intervenait quelques jours après deux scrutins négatifs pour l'Europe
en France et aux Pays-Bas, qui avaient fait craindre un effet
d'entrainement.

A nuance is that this includes an opt-in to the Dublin accords,
whereby asylum seekers get only one chance to claim, which "will
eliminate 20% of the requests made in the Switzyland". This is
reassuring if, like me, you had initially feared the Swiss might be
going soft on Foreigners.

It's in the Alps, next to Danmark. Full of fjords and cuckoo clocks, by
all accounts, but at least the trains run on time.
