As well as cluttering up our computers with unwanted attachments, has the
naturerecordists' group also now changed their policy on the use of HTML? =

am now receiving non-HTML messages with fancy typeface, coloured typeface
etc, and with extra advertisements from Yahoo on those messages. As well a=
s
slowing the download times, and message opening times, my computer actually
froze while opening one non-HTML message this morning. I fear too that the
door is now being left wide open for viruses.
I vote that we keep naturerecordists' communication format as simple as
possible, so that no-one is left out or feels compelled to unsubscribe.

I'll pass that on, I'm going to be meeting with John Jensen tomorrow on
another matter.

I have just left it up in the air. Let the herps folks sort it out. It
has some differences in coloration, but hard to tell how important that
is. The fact that Paul Mohler considered it something to be investigated
means there may be something to it.
The fact it's occurred so rarely is what makes me think it's not some
normal part of their calls.
If I get the chance I'll check the site this year and see if the calls
are still there.
