BwanamichThanks Steve,
Actually, as the boards have been full of SCI news, I felt that there was some pertinant info in the newsletter about SCI and SCIF's work in Africa.

Don't worry Lane I'm sure there was at the very least a typo or something they can be critisized over! Just give people a minute to look it over.

Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter
May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick.
And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too.
May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep.
May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip.

Don't be silly Brett...... It's written in American so there's bound to be spelling and punctuation mistakes in it!

More seriously, some of the lion & leopard research looks interesting and I'll look forward to learning more about it......

Use Enough GunIsn't that true! I just bought a new Ithaca 28 gauge pump shotgun and the owner's/instruction manual is full of spelling mistakes! And no, it wasn't printed in Japan or China! The gun is American made, right in Sandusky, Ohio

Idaho SharpshooterSurely there is something in this report to criticize about SCI not investing enough money or the suit he wore at the UN.
Where was the supreme allied commander of the anti-SCI forces when this scurrilous sneak attack occurred?
Thanks for letting us know...
