Chloe (and her mom) unsubscribed from Conch-L a few days after subscribing, due to all the talk of viruses and security problems, and what she described as "an obscene message that was posted". I am in touch with her, and if anyone else needs her email address to offer help, email me at home ([log in to unmask]) and I'll send it to you. She was looking for resources to do a home-schooling unit on shells with a 6-year old daughter (Chloe). I am sending her a few shells, and I know she would be thrilled if anyone else did.
