Swarthmore's Scott Arboretum is fantastic. I go to alumni days there just to see it (I'm an old Swatty). It's a loooong drive, but well worth it! The speaker line-up looks awfully good, too. I've got relatives coming from all over that weekend, though, so I'll have to pass on it. This time. BTW, it's easy to get to with public transit, the local train runs right there from downtown Philly, and the connections are very easy.

The latest update is as follows: Hello! This week we concluded our March Butterfly Festival meeting, where we finalized most of the events and matched volunteers with their interests. Events include: * Tours of the butterfly house and butterfly garden, and tours of the entire Close Botanical Gardens * Children's crafts and activities, including a caterpillar petting zoo * Classes on gardening for butterflies, native butterfly identification, and butterfly photography * Butterfly and gardening Information booths from the Missouri Department of Conservation and Springfield Public Works * Several vendors to sell butterfly host plants and garden accents * Butterfly and caterpillar costume contests for kids and a butterfly kite contest * Live butterfly releases * And more! The festival will be held July 11 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and July 12 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and there are numerous opportunities to help on the festival days and in the preceding months.

Ferreting around Google for a moment, it appears the G4/1.33 was introduced on September 16, 2003 and discontinued on April 19, 2004. Google using the the model number as the keyword. The appearing entries include model information as well as available sales. Take a look at their prices versus the one you are interested in and draw your own conclusion. "If it sounds too good to be true.....". And let us not forget, "Buyer beware". Good luck! DA
