[Alan Sondheim <sondheim@panix.com>]

You might want to check the following out; one of the things that 
fascinates me is the enormity of the next - and yet we continue to

unfamiliar with. I know in one area I'm concerned with - world-wide animal 
extinction - there are so many hotspots and so many populations on the
