Hi Paulette,

Isn't this great. We genies are a helpful lot. It might get off topic as
far as actual research is concerned but we certainly know how to help each
other find info.I would hope Sth Aussies would feel as welcome if they came
here although don't think would be as convenient to get around - long
distances between research places. Still it is what you get used to. Will
try to make up our mind shortly on this and book.

Appreciate your advice Sandra
