People who are in, or will be in, the New York City area might want to know that Saturday May 10th will be the American Museum of Natural History's annual "Identification Day" event, when members of the general public can bring in items for museum scientists to identify. This event will run from noon to 4 pm, and takes place very near the museum's main entrance, but on the lower level, in the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Hall, on either side of the bronze statue of Teddy Roosevelt sitting on a bench. I will be staffing the mollusk table, and I am always happy to look at shells or other molluscan bits and pieces. Children of all ages are very welcome! Susan J.
