Hey Bob,
Those were truly impressive photos. Any chance of using some for American
Conchologist?

Hi Thomas,
Too funny. But in fairness to my fellow Guamanians...I've seen these silly
things before.
Martin,
The Guam Shell Club exists but we are just a handful of collectors now. But
we still meet.
We can still collect but not within the marine preserves, which included
what were once some prime shelling grounds.
Okay, just a small plug, if you want to see shells that actually come from
Guam...visit http://babela.smugmug.com :)
All the best,
Bob Abela
