I on the other hand had a shipment of Orangethroat Darters that sat on a
hot dock in Florida for several days before they were delivered that
arrived as "darter stew". When I complained, and really pushed it I got
some results. I have since then NEVER had a package take more than 3 days
to reach a Florida destination...and that includes sending one to Andy
Borgia ahead of a hurricane that was rolling through. (I sent him one
before that and it took 7 days to reach him because of a hurricane, but
fortunately, many of the madtoms in the shipment did live)
