[Dwayne Shreve]

Hola listeros,

La Presidente of the Pre-Columbian Society asked me to place this here for
your perusal: Note that if the batch of chicha I started a few days ago
turns out as well as I think it will, some of that will be there for
inclusion among the refreshments afterward.

David Pentecost, Television Producer and Editor:
Usumacinta - New Threats and New Discoveries
            The return of plans to exploit the Usumacinta River for hydro
power and continued invasions by settlers and narco traffickers have created
new pressures on the ecology and cultural legacy of the Usumacinta
watershed. Recently completed video reports explore the political and
cultural forces at work on the southern border of Mexico.
