I read that somewhere, I will have to try and find that article. I might be
mistaken. God knows it won't be the first time and I am sure not the last.
But I will be the first to admit if I am. Let me find the article and I will
get back to you.

I would be interested in reading the article you have on it,and I would be
interested in the book on Oregon Sculpins to. What price are we talking for
expenes?

Thanks
Kevin
