    Dear Subscriber,

    While the Mechanics of Tropical Trees is, indeed, a rather esoteric subject on
    Biomch-L, it definitely belongs to the scope of Biomechanics; I seem to recall
    a related paper in the Journal of Biomechanics of some years ago. If you wish,
    I might try and look it up?

    At any rate, you can sign off from the list by sending the command SIGNOFF
    BIOMCH-L to LISTSERV@HEARN. Alternatively, I would very much like to see a
    posting on current, major problems in your field. I would think that some
    link might exist with bending mechanics in living bone which, I presume, might
    interest a substantial part of the subscribership. By posting such a summary,
    you might find out with more certainty to what extent Biomch-L meets your pur-
    poses (despite the list's original profile on Human and Animal Movement).

    One of the interesting parts of our field is its multidisciplinarity. Last
    week, for example, I was talking with a group of agricultural researchers
    on the application of the GCVSPL s/w package (stored on LISTSERV@HEARN, and
    retrievable by sending the command SEND GCVSPL FORTRAN to LISTSERV@HEARN) for
    estimation of data in a certain growth and nutrition problem. Also, the Irish
    conference announced on Biomch-L last week underlines the potential of cross-
    fertilisation between disciplines.

    With kind regards -- Herman J. Woltring (moderator, Biomch-L).
