Can we hear more about this please? What's happened? >>
Apparently, through the years some names have been duplicated, some have been
discontinued and some have been withdrawn. The way I understand it is that
Howard skipped those names, but now realizes the need for the 'trail'.
So the duplications are playing havoc with the database and it needs to be
resolved.
BUT, as far as a functioning, searchable program.... he's THERE! And I must
stress again, boyz and girlz, that Howard Hughes did this under his own
steam, on his own initiative and on his own time. He personally and without
assistance of any kind entered 47,000 iris names into a database, with
hybridizer, type and registration year. Every time I think about it, I go
numb.
Kathyguest in East Aurora, NY - who says that the wonderful thing about the
people we have in AIS now is the 'can do' attitude and the willingness to
explore new territory. Very energizing!
