     Dave and Perry,

     It'll be a (long) while before I'm likely to start culturing CF's
     also, but maybe others will be more adventurous. CP's (Sarracenia &
     Nepenthes, mostly) are my hobby, and I enjoy them because of their
     beautiful & unusual forms. But as kid, I was initially attracted to
     CP's because of their bizzare diets & wonderful means of trapping prey
     (that still appeals to me & certainly makes for great conversation
     topics). For that reason, the concept of carnivorous fungi seems
     equally bizzare & wonderful, and are at least worth some gee-whiz nat.
     history. But I don't see growing (deliberately, anyway) CF's in my
     future (though Oyster mushrooms are welcome for dinner).

     Best regards,

     Ted
