Yes, Bruce, the trade does have a couple of publications that go out, and
we also have a branch of PIJAC here. That is a very good idea, and I would
like to take this time to suggest that all of us on this list that are in
the business, or who happen to write articles for the "big" pubs anyhow,
begin writing articles/letters to the editor(s) of these publications (and
even the hobby ones, really). It would probably also be a good idea to
list the RML, the various Sahul fishes groups, and some of the better
websites as sources of up-to-date info in those articles/letters so that
the dealers would have a place to go for more info.
I shall start on my letter as soon as time permits. I get one of those
trade pubs at work, so I will start w/ that one. :) Lets make this another
"official" group project, and try to keep one another updated on our
progress??
