Excuse me, Conch-Lers,
       but has anyone heard from Jose Hernandez in the Canary Islands.  I know that when he returned from vacation (in May, I think) he was quite ill.  But I haven't had any reply to a few messages that I have sent since (and they were not bounced back to me as "host unknown."   Sorry to use the list, but this is my only recourse at this time.
      I promise to be good and stay shell-related in the future.

                Thanks,
                Linda Bush
