Dear all,
 
sorry I think this was a misunderstanding. I believed that Don Barclay
named the shells in his aquarium after some persons as there are
names to other pets. So I thought that one conus has a name like
Paul or another name as cat was named Tribble and so on. So I only
wanted that he calls a Conus or a Cypraea in his aquarium Helmut.
So Helmet is very like Helmut and the family of Helicidae is also
near to my name. Therefore I choosed my e-mail: [log in to unmask] in this way. It's all very similar to my name.
This is my sense of humor.
with best shelling greetings to all of you
Helmut from Innsbruck
