It would be nice to be able to click a few keys and find that certain
card.  I have all of the card packs, and have been asked to copy them,
but have not.  I don't know what legal areas we are getting into. I had
permission a couple of years ago to copy the out-of-date ones by Sally
herself, but nothing in writing, and now it's to late to do anything
about it.  I have mine alphabetise in species order. because the genus
changes with the tides.  They are being sold by someone else, if he
wants to comment, the door is open.  Oh by the way in the beginning many
of the illustrations were not of the type specimens, and as with
anything else there were many mistakes made, which could be straightened
out.
