[Killietalk] Mentoring newcomers is great idea.

["Harry Specht" <aus62 at comcast_net>]

Good idea, Lonny. It was tried many years ago, but never really implemented 
for some reason. After all, having an experienced person discuss and a dvise 
a newcomer would be most helpful to prevent disappointment over losing new 
killifish. Truly, the whole premise of the AKA was to bring together folks 
interested in killifish to learn from one another and exchange these 
wonderful fish.

I would suggest, Lonny, you conosider sending the info on a newcomer to an 
affiliate club in his area -- or as close as possible. Permit the affiliate 
club president  recommend a member to act as mentor as  he knows  his (or 
her) club members.. A letter or note to affilaite clubs for their input 
about this scheme is in order  before trying this system At any rate, 
remember the KISS priniciple. It works
