Editing and layout of the Summer 2003 American Currents is complete, but
publication has been delayed while I iron out the technical kinks with a new
printer. Once this is done, I anticipate a significant improvement in the
print quality of the publication, and a faster printing and mailing
turnaround time.

If you are not a NANFA member, or have recently expired, you can use this
delay to your advantage and get your membership in now. Please go to ...

http://www.nanfa.org/join.htm

... for an order form. Send it in within the next week or so, and I
guarantee that you will not miss this issue.

Dues are just $20 a year (U.S.), $29 (Canada & Mexico), and $34 (all other
countries).

For people new to natives and this list, American Currents is NANFA's
quarterly publication. Each 40-page (sometimes 44-page) issue is jam-packed
with articles, photos, and news items on a wide variety of subjects
pertaining to the biology, conservation, and aquarium care of North
America's native fish fauna.
