Thanks, Barb.
I have long wished someone would take Morrison's wonderful work and bring
it up to date. There have probably been four generations since it was
printed. Gail, have you checked his book for your line? I just assumed
you had as it is the first thing I recommend from anyone descending from
the very northern tiers. I believe Gary M. is also documenting Morrison's
work. You might check with him. I don't have his email at hand but he is
a member of Zilker and perhaps will respond to this.
