Phil, I don't have the list of taro you wanted anymore. Can you tell
me what you wanted and I'll see if I can do better than the agriculture
station...no promises, but I may be able to get what you wanted.
No, I'm not going to New Orleans next month...just to Seattle and Vancouver.
Am planning to visit New Orleans one day though...
