Paleoclimate`2U{earch With Freshwater Mussels.

My name is Keith Olive from Yakima,`7QK-=kon 902 S.44th
Yakima, Wa. 98908.  509-454-5848

My 8th grade class is doing a major rese8ych project using freshwater
mussels (Margaritifera falcata).  We are comparing`tXMD_>oth rates
of modern specimens to prehist'ic specimens so we can reproduce 
climate condizzons of long ago.  We have access to specimUnkDB-?IX>/hyPXbAyears`ov\b-iould like to obtain specimens from other regions
around the world to compare to our region.  They are found holarctically
so they should be in a variety of places.  If you know of an area with 
these mussels please contaczPmgZAo]y E Mpzl address is"wilsonms".  If
you would like more info about the project send us a note.  We'd love
to work with other areas in our study of paleoclimate and climatic
change.  

We would also like to add to our collection of freshwater musselsMffw["jQywojZe.  If you have shells from non-endangered species, we'd
love to recieve/trade shells.    `        Thanks,  Keith.
