Hi Richard,
I was reading an article in the New Scientist re loss of bio diversity.
(8th April)
It concentrated on the Pacific Islands and in particular the Hawaiian
bird population.
Have you guys at Bishop got any idea of how great the impact of the
arrival of man has been on the U/W life of the Pacific Islands?  Is
it comprable with the bird loss? (est >2000 sp!!!!).
We have had some dramatic disasters here in Australia with the introduction
of northern hemisphere life in ballast water ;(  Have you had similar
problems?

Thanks Jason :)

BTW Helium was discovered 100 yrs ago next month!
