Dear Jims 
We have a problem with three specimens which have been traced to you; I 
am writing to enlist your aid in solving this problem.

are the data in the bottles *— can you flesh it out a bit more? 
Mope all is well with you during this mild and warm winter we're having. 
Sincerely yours* 
Stephen D. Busack 
P.S. 
Do you have a spare capy of the 1976 ecological 
paper you and Dave published on the salamander transect 
work? If so, I'd be grateful.
