Dear Art, Doug, et al:
        Please come to visit my "Place to report Flying Pig sightings" at
http://user.icx.net/~midgard/favlinks.htm  I think you'll get a snort
out of it, and maybe recognize someone...
        I think the current thread about and with the children is wonderful! I
have recently been exchanging with an 11 year old young lady in Hawaii.
I have made it a practice for years to give at least one shell to every
child who comes to my home. I have no idea how many may have become
collecters, but they all left with a new sense of wonder and joy on
their faces, even the very young ones.
 
        A great Spring to you all, even if I am early, as it is proving to be
here in Tennessee!
 
        Mariah
