Learning Experience

Taking the computer into the shop tomorrow for a little "data recovery." Specifically, a file with all the spider images for Eight-Legged Marvels, which just up and disappeared on me. Since I'm not a computer guy, I'm not certain what the problem is, though I could have saved myself a lot of hassle if I had bothered to back up the pics. Anyway, it may be bad sectors, from what I've dug up on the problem, and hopefully will get back on track by Tuesday. Have a lot of scanning to do, but can't add anything to the hard drive until the problem's solved.

Other news: looks like LSI has better black-white photo capabilities now, assuming the pdfs are prepared properly. I'm going to test that out soon, hopefully.

Meeting with a local naturalist this week who has a book on Pennsylvania's freshwater mussels and the like. As it is apparently mostly done, could be something of interest.
