Helmut,

It is my understanding that your donation of land shells did indeed arrive.
The individuals who are chairing the auction committee have recently moved
and have not re-connected to Conch-L.  In  a recent planning meeting they
mentioned receiving the shells.  Thank you very much for your donation.
