Extinction and migration

[Ron Gatrelle]

Now this is a real good argument. As a taxonomist I _insist_ on legalistic
use of terms and names. So I should expect that those at  the other corners
of the naturalist box (trapezoid) would expect the same. Patrick, you left
one word out of your e-drop . Got-cha.
