In this case the spam was addressed directly to the list, so it got 
redistributed to everyone.  This is a low-level annoyance, but if it 
happens any more regularly I'll begin to lodge complaints with AOL.

Right now I need 4 more species, Gary.  We're going to be in the 
Ocean City area for 4-5 days following Christmas and we hope to get 
the 2 eiders and harlequin duck.  The Christmas Counts we're doing 
should give us opportunities at barred and great horned owls, which 
would leave me right at 400.  We'd both really like to get some 
crossbills as well.  We'll see what happens.  Grin...

Cheers,
Norm
