Dear Y'all;- We appear to have had a number of people complain lately that we are not discussing subjects they want to read about. Therefore, down goes the gauntlet. How about suggesting topics that you WOULD like to see under discussion. No matter what you are interested in, someone knows more about it than I do. I'll start it out by suggesting a few things I'd like to know more about: 1. I'd like to more about Dr. Rowland Zeigler who gave us that wonderful Olive book. Did any of you know him? 2. I'd like to know the effect of river effluent on nearby marine environments. Do they bring more nutrient or more pollutant into marine systems? Are there "good" rivers and "bad" rivers? How far is their effct felt? 3. When we have a shell that is known from only one or two specimens, should it go on the endangered species list? Or do we take the position that we just haven't looked hard enough. That's a start. You can either add to this interest list or give us your own. Art
