Southwest

To any and all interested parties, particularly Triassic workers:

Presently we at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science are 
pondering the possibility of re-printing "Dawn of the Age of Dinosaurs in the 
American Southwest" (Lucas, S.G., and Hunt, A.P., eds). This volume, which is 
414+ pages including 9 plates, includes 22 contributions by various authors. It 
has been out of print for about 8 years but is essential to anyone working on 
the Chinle in particular or Late Triassic tetrapods in general. We promise 
better quality illustrations of the plates and a more permanent binding this 
time around. However, we need
to be assured that there is enough interest from the VP community to justify 
the initial cost. Accordingly, if you would consider buying the volume were it 
reprinted, please e-amil me _offlist_ (note address below). I
expect that the volume would be approximately $20-$25 U.S. There is no original 
"soft copy" so we will not be posting it on the web anytime soon.

Thanks, and my apologies for cross-postings.

Andy
