Who are these guys (and gal)?
It occurs to me that not evryone knows the members of the expedition. All Are paleobotanists, save Dave Buchanan who is our expert outdoorsman. He will keep us alive. I did a postodoctoral fellowship with Tom Taylor years ago in Colunbus, Ohio, when Tom was chair of Botany. Josh was just a small boy at the time (1977-78) At that time, Edie was a graduate student in the lab. Tom and Edie, who years later got married, have been great friends ever since. Jeff Osborne was a student with Tom at Ohio after I left. He is now at Truman State University in Missouri. Pablo is at the museum in Argentina (I'll look up the specifics tomorrow). I have not met him, but he is rumored to be a good guy. While we are all friends, or soon will be, I am sure we will be glad to get back into the company of other folks after six weeks.

Hi Chuck:
Hope you are enjoying your short stay in NZ and the jet lag isn't too bad. Take some pix of everybody in their ECC gear before and after 4 weeks in the field!
Have a great time and keep us posted on the fossil finds.
