G'day Tom,

> Here's a thinker for y'all

1) Most Taswegians don't think they're extinct anyway (there's a million

dollar reward for a sighting... which means if you USians want a quick $2.50
you should probably come and have a poke around). The most inventive so far
was when someone painted a whippet with stripes.... 2) You guys have yet to
get the rest of the ethical furor that has been
going on here for the last 6 months (at least in the science world) -
it's not a popular decision... more a PR gimmick!

Cheers

Beth
