Hi Emilio and fellow conch-l'ers,  I was not referring to the clubs when
I mentioned the environmental impact. I have been a member of and on
trips with the Miami Shell Club in the past and they are a good bunch of
folks and most were sensitive to the habitat and the snails well being
so to speak.  I just joined the Broward Shell club but have not been
able to go to any meetings or outings (except for their wonderful show)
yet due to school and work.  I can't name any individuals as I have been
away from them for quite sometime now.  Wether it's still going on, I
don't know.  Michael,  Sunrise, FL
