I worked in the fossil fish section for six weeks in the summer of 1983. I learned a lot about fossils, and as the fossil fish section was then the focus of debate about cladistics, the atmosphere was stimulating to say the least (remember: three out of the notorious Gang of Four -- Rosen, Forey, Patterson and Gardiner -- are in the fossil fish section or closely associated with it). Oh yes, I drank a lot, too. I don't know if the NHM still runs these courses. In those days they were exclusively fro British citizens, but I don't know if that's true any more. It's worth finding out. Perhaps Norm McLeod or another knowledgeable NHM person would care to enlighten us on the 'net? -- Henry Gee ------------------------------------------------------------ Nature, henry@chiswick.demon.co.uk 4 Little Essex Street, naturelondon@mcimail.com London WC2R 3LF nature@naturedc.com tel +44 171 836 6633 x 2473 fax +44 171 836 9934 ------------------------------------------------------------
