Dear Andrew Pete et al;-
Olive story:
Some of you probably remember Mr. Glancy; lived somewhere in Central Indiana, developed strains of popcorn. He had a "Shell Museum". It was in the barn behind the house. One of his pride and joys was:---he had an example of every species of Olive listed in The Zeigler book-----GLUED to a piece of plywood.
