There was a recent message from another mailing list participant who expressed concerns with whether or not the Apistogramma Study Group was currently functioning or not. I would like to reassure all participants that it is. In fact, I'm the co-Publisher for the Apisto-Gram, the official newsletter of the ASG. If anybody is interested in joining the ASG, the person you need to contact is Daryl Szyska. His mailing address is 5724 N. Mobile, Chicago, Il 60646. (I don't know if he has an e-mail address or not, but I might be able to help answer any questions.) Now, a special offer just for the people on the Apistogramma Mailing List, and don't you dare tell anyone I told you this, it's just our little secret, okay? The membership rates are going up. Why do I know? Because I'm publishing the new rates in the next issue of the Apisto-Gram that I'm in the process of laying out right now! But technically, if you act right now, you can effectively get a discount. Of course, if you wait until next month, I'll have printed and mailed out Issue #51 and I'll have to quote you the new rates. It's all up to you. This is the first time membership rates have been increased in years, and the old rates simply do not cover postage, let alone printing costs, any more. Current New Rates $12.50 USA $15.00 $14.00 Canada $17.50 $16.00 Foreign $20.00 Remember, this was just between us, okay? __ \/ dj ----------- Reminder: Kindly quote parsimoniously when replying ------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@aquaria.net.
