 For a good book on cleaning shells, get Bob and Betty Lipe's book. You can
probably order it from their web site or see their ad in American
Conchologist for The Shell Store, St. Petersburg Beach, Florida.

  P.S. Don't forget the Palm Beach County Shell Club is having their Y2K
Shell Show this coming weekend. It looks like the weather is going to be
wonderful for that side trip to Peanut Island or the SUNCRUZ Casino boat, the
show is going to be FANTASTIC with over 400' of truly outstanding exhibits
and we hope to see you there.
