...team of zoologists leaves this week for Beijing in hopes of finalizing the negotiations, which were complicated by the bombing of China's Belgrade embassy. Pandas are so precious to Chinese diplomacy that the premier must give his OK. Zoo officials estimate new pandas would each year bring an additional 400,000 visitors and $1.2 million in concession sales...
