Riverman, speaking of missing things, how about some of your writing?
How
are you doing in your new assisgnment, Hong Kong, right? I told on of
your
experiences to a group of fly fisherman about the African caretaker
snail
thing it was a big hit. Are you getting any chances to fish?

Hey Chris; thanks for the compliment, although I have no idea what the
'caretaker snail' thing is. :-?
---------------- Snipped in hopes my memory is correct --------------
As I remember, the caretaker at your college would take fruit out into the
jungle and the next morning collect large snails, which I believe he then
ate, that had been feeding on the fruit all night. Wasn't that your
posting?
