Hi all,
    Christmas is coming so I use red & green (I don't know of any Hanukkah
colors). Everyone has much email and other things to do so I'll keep it short
(this 'letter, not a person, right The Tall One).
    To begin with, the address for a shell screen saver is;
[log in to unmask] & [log in to unmask], the last address will photograph
your own shells. Since I'm the Murex Man a screen saver of Murexes would be
great if I find one.
    To our shell friend in the Netherlands; on p. 164 of Seashells of the
Northern Hemisphere by R.Tucker Abbott, copyright, 191 has a picture &
description of a zebra mussel mentioned if I remember the Latin name you said
(I think so).
    I want to mention to Glen & Laura Burghaart that I got a copy (unbound)
of the book; West Coast Chitons when I subscribed to Of Sea & Shore magazine
in the early '70's. I also like Chitons as well as Murexes probably because
of Bill Old (who sadly pasted away), of the mollusk (it's spelled right, look
in a LARGE dictionary) department of the Am. Museum of Natural History.
    Well, I think that takes care of everyone for now. If I missed a
question, there is always a next time.
