Greenly, Marcus Marcus Ricci, M.S. 1301 Monroe Avenue Charleston, IL 61920 personal: spotted_b...@hotmail.com "The last word in ignorance is the man who says of an animal or plant: "What good is it?" If the land mechanism as a whole is good, then every part is good, whether we understand it or not. If the biota, in the course of aeons, has built something we like but do not understand, then who but a fool would discard seemingly useless parts? To keep every cog and wheel is the first precaution of intelligent tinkering." -- Aldo Leopold, Sand County Almanac and Sketches from Here and There, 1946 -----Original Message----- From: Ecological Society of America: grants, jobs, news [mailto:ecolo...@listserv.umd.edu] On Behalf Of Hargrave, Chad Sent: Wednesday, February 04, 2009 12:20 PM To: ECOLOG-L@LISTSERV.UMD.EDU Subject: [ECOLOG-L] Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Texas Research Inst itute for Environmental Studies Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Texas Research Institute for Environmental Studies Texas Research Institute for Environmental Studies Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, Texas Position Summary: The Texas Research Institute for Environmental Studies (TRIES) is searching for a highly motivated and talented research scientist with an expertise in Environmental Toxicology.
