I have had a shocker of a past few days. Friday turned to ****, and couldn't get to the library (for the Vic Nat article), and the weekend was a dead loss. Hopefully I will get a chance tomorrow....(fingers crossed). The article is looking really good, just a shame I couldn't be more active to date.

That's quite alright, the article's not going anywhere, and I'm sure I can find something to occupy myself with in the meantime :) Now I have to go prep an FAC nom to get in the organism action at FAC. Sasata (talk) 14:17, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Update - got it - wonderful what you can do with a digital SLR camera set to 1600 ISO :) Funny, I think I have corresponded with Kate Sommerville about banksias before. Anyway, I will email Tom May about the violacea photo for an ID too. Now to add some material - it is a fascinating paper BTW. Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:33, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
