John Chadwick - Thank you for hosting such an active and informative newsgroup. "Archive everything!!!! " - another vote from yet another museum packrat! The queries I have posted, and those I have read, have been answered by informed professionals - those my institution might normally have to pay for their advice, or those I would spend hours in the library to find. And isn't this the whole point of electronic mail? Add my name to your list of supporters! Karen J. Kroslowitz phone: 808-848-4118 Natural Sciences, Malacology fax: 808-841-8968 Bernice P.
