paleonet GSA Seattle

[Ian Francis <ian.francis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Paleontologists

For those of you attending the GSA this year, Dr Norm MacLeod, Keeper of 
Palaeontology at The Natural History Museum, London, and editor of the 
PaleoBase CD ROMs, will be on hand  at the Blackwell booth (#114) between 
2:30 and 4:00 pm on the afternoon of Tuesday 4 November. Norm will be 
demonstrating the third and final part of the PaleoBase Macrofossils 
project (cnidarians, sponges, echinoderms, problematica), and a new benthic 
foram database also built on the Compustrat platform. Norm will  be happy 
to discuss technical aspects of how the composite digital images used in 
PaleoBase were assembled, offer suggestions for how the software can be 
used in course programmes, and accept suggestions for future improvements 
or modifications.

See you in Seattle
