Forum: I greatly appreciate the generosity of all who sent me references, comments, and other information on this subject. Rather than clutter ecolog-l with a sizable compilation of the results, I will not post, but send it to all those who request(ed) it or contributed. If others would like a copy, you can respond to this email and I will add you to the list. This will also facilitate further discussion on this and related (food chain toxicity) issues off-list for those interested without cluttering ecolog-l.
Please note that if you changed the subject-line lead text I may not pick up your message, as that's how I do my initial compilation of messages. If you don't receive something in, say, ten days (it may take me that long to compile everything properly), send me an email.
