Hey! Who had the hidden camera in my lab???
I swear some days this is exactly what I do. I no longer use ink.

Marcus that is too funny. Walter Sage, who named a few shells used to say,  
if you think it is new to science, take it out to the driveway and run over 
it.  LOL I feel all of your pain. I started writing the Peanut Island and 
Lake Worth  Lagoon, Shells book about 8 years ago. Every time I go to update 
it, either  through first Malacolog and now WoRMS, I have to change, change 
and change  again. 
But, there is more and more being known. Perhaps in another 300 years it  
will all be worked out. Too bad we won't be here to see it. Happy New Year  
Everyone.

There is no way to  keep everything updated to the last publication, 
otherwise you will spend more  time with your files than with your shells... you 
can use WoRMS http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=searchwebsite  to 
check the most important changes. 
Not even museums  update everything - I would suggest only changing the 
families you really  like. We (Femorale) follow some changes, but keep Cypraea 
as Cypraea and Conus  as Conus since it is much easier to handle thousands 
of shells. If you are  specialized on these families then you can use all the 
other  genus. 
And just for  fun....
