Journal on CD

[Ron Gatrelle]

At www.tils-ttr we only have about 40 type specimens up, but give us 2 or
three more years!! If anyone has type specimens they would like for us to
post send me an e (as in from or away) mail and we'll see what we can work
out. As far as the old stuff goes, Norbert, this has been something I've
wanted to see for a long time. I guess the problem is that if Hubner was
put on line that nobody would need to go 200 to 1000 mile to visit the
museum anymore.
