Hey All,

First, thanks to everyone who went to the Davis plant sale. In a nutshell,
everything sold and the conservatory will be able to buy some new
equipment to update their machines. The plants sold so fast that I feel
justified in my hyperbolic statements regarding prices. We'll try to have
a different set of plants for next year's sale.

I have, in my pile of ICPS correspondence, a letter from a fellow in
Arkansas. He is an experienced CPer, recently moved to the lonely woods of
Arkansas, and pining for contact with other CPers. He asked me to put the
following note on the net for him:

    ICPS member and CP grower of five years experience isolated by new
    residence and lack of technology desires correspondence with any CP
    enthusiasts. Large collection lost and starting over from scratch.
    I have nothing to sell or trade at this time. I'm interested in any
    species or genus. I will, to the best of my ability and finances,
    answer any who care to write.

    Rocks D. Miner
    P.O. Box 913
    Murfreesboro, AR 71958

Rocks has been exploring the Arkansas woods extensively, looking for CP
and other botanical treasures. He's a good sort and you should write him!

Barry
