In a word? _*YES*_!!!

Just two days ago I posted a fairly exhaustive piece on the subject of
malaria to the U/W Photography Forum (I was going to keep it private
there but the response was overwhelmingly to post it directly to that list).

I posted it privately to Andrew but if the list is sufficiently
interested, I'll also post it here. Otherwise ask me to send it to you
off list.

Your call,

Christian
