>>It's what happens when it leaves the collection (representation) that makes the difference ex-situ. The in-situ discussion is being driven by folks both past and present in an attempt to figure out just what is what in nature and document it for all of us to appreciate their "passion" for what they are doing for all of us.

That sums it up nicely Jim.

Jim,
These opinions are of my own accord. So if the workers disagree or present other evidence I'll have to eat my words, or prove my theory myself. It is based on part some of the workers initial mtDNA sequences, as well as field experience, field experiences of others, gestalt, geography, and scouring museums for specimens. There are still many questions, and many surprises I'm sure.
