25 December 1997
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to heartily second Kristian's suggestion of a celebration for
Geoff. His many contributions for improving communication among
polychaetologists - from the first e-mail CHAETOZONE Newsletter to the
ANNELIDA discussion group and all the goodies he has assembled at our
website - have decidedly made our life a lot easier and us better
informed, and his initiatives and numerous tips on how to make things work
are a constant help for those of us less well versed in the intricacies of
utilizing the internet. Geoff, thank you for many good suggestions and
all the presents you have given us throughout the years!
My apologies to those of you who have had trouble reaching me the past few
weeks. My mail connection has been very unstable, so I haven't always
gotten things on time, on the first try, or at all. Things should
eventually improve when I am switched over to another mail system, so
please keep on trying - I appreciate your feedback.
Season's Greetings to all of you and many thanks for providing worms, help
and information of various sorts in the past year! I hope 1998 will be a
healthy and happy year for all of us!
The very best wishes to everyone, especially Geoff,
Mary E. Petersen
