Re: [Killietalk]velvet

["Robert Goldstein" <rgoldstein at rjgacarolina_com>]

Dr. Ed Noga of the NCSU Vet School has one more request for velvet-infested 
nothos (any species), and has a budget to purchase a lot of them. Anyone who 
has infested nothos and wants to convert them to cash, please contact me 
off-list or by telephone at 919-696-6791. If we can't get infested nothos, 
I'll take uninfested ones (at least a dozen) and try to induce velvet 
myself. - Bob Goldstein
