Neil Jones et al. - conservationists

[Martin Bailey]

I, a new member of this listserv, will consider myself lucky that I have
been helped by two or three of your members offlist.  They have generously
given me more than I am able to return.

I will, nevertheless, consider my option to unsubscribe.  I, like everyone
else, has to ration his time by making choices.

Hopefully, I will continue to do as I have done in the past.  I will try to
seek out those who are able to constructively use their intellectual
energies.  People who have the passions of committment to what they are
doing without that committment overwhelming them.

Martin Bailey,

greetings from:  Weyburn, SK., Canada.
