To Paul
Not really. My neighbour studies it (I think she graduated) so I know a bit
of what it is like from what she told me. I'm interested in the culture
though. Whenever I have an opportunity I read something about the far east.
I regard their culture far more advanced than ours (Euro-american) in quite
a few aspects.

To the rest...including Paul :).

If anyone is interested in talking about Africa, I will be glad to converse,
since I've spent 7 years of my life there (Kenya and Ghana). Most of my
shell collection is from the Indian Ocean, some of it is from the Adriatc
Sea, and I have a few common Anodonta sp. from the Danube river, and a few
land snails.
Nothing spectacular but I'm looking to increase my collection since I'm
about to learn how to dive.
I'm counting on your (conch-l)  help :)
BTW.. I'm still collecting your answers about my previous question. They are
very interesting, a wide range of attitudes. I'll classify them (can't help
it :) and make a short resime of your opinions once I have a useful sample.
I will not use your names since it would spoil the fun.

Cheers,

T.
