Fred,

I read about your work in the latest issue of Science News. I once worked
with a man who'd been raised in a log cabin in West Virginia and had some
memory of those magnificent chestnut trees. Caught my imagination. Several
years ago, in England, I saw something that fit his description. Must have
been seven or eight feet through, and tall as an old-growth fir. Not at all
like a horse chestnut. Forget how many tons of nuts they said were harvested
each year. Could it have been an American?

I'd like to ask more questions, but this isn't navigation. Could you send
your e-mail address?

Bruce
