Bob,
Looks like you have an active and interesting group, and yes, I would
enjoy very much speaking to your society. Unfortunately, however,
personal committments make it impossible for me to do so until next
fall. I'm doing field work in Mexico in January, helping my mom sell her
house and move in February, getting married in March, and selling my and
my fiance's house and moving into a new house (that we still have to buy)
in April. Then starts my field season here in Wisconsin (peak
May-September) and possibly more field work in Mexico. So my schedule is
impossible until about late September of next year. I realize that you
had something in mind for much earlier than that, and I understand if you
don't want to look that far ahead. But if you're still interested in a
presentation around a year from now, I can talk on a variety of subjects
related to collection and conservation of wild livebearers (and other
species) from Mexico.

Hello Dr. Lyons.
My name is Bob Holmes. I'm the president of the Greater Seattle Aquarium
Society. Your name has been passed along to me by one of our members who is
also a member of the American Livebearer Association, as a possible guest
speaker at one of our future monthly meetings.
Would you be interested in coming out to Seattle to give a presentation on
a livebearer-related topic? All expenses would be on us, of course.
Thank you for your attention to this request.
Bob
