I have no decent digital shots of myself, but if you are really curious, go to:

The 7th and 9th pictures down are crowd shots - the fellow in the blue shirt who has white hair at the image right side of the fireplace, lecturing on circulating ranges, is the notorious RTR.

It is from 2007 I think - that was the circulating range talk. The crowd overloaded the AC - a first for this house - it was a really hot day. Too many folks, too many cars. At least the big veggie filter started its clean-up that day - never again will I allow one to overgrow so badly. It was also the bananas 2nd best year, but they did mot max out for another month after the meeting. If I ever do another and we expect that many folks, I'll cool the place down more before the mob arrives.

20 years ago I was still salt-and-pepper (although just as bald). In '07 ,as now, the beard and hair are plain white. The clothes would have been about the same - blue shirts are a trademark.. . I have way too many of them. Like fishtanks.

I was going to post this in another thread, but since you asked! It's kind of a mystery (or not?) I think I'm going to be needing to call my LFS and let them know they are grossly mistaken, but I want to be SURE. They were labeled as "Neon Green Dwarf Puffers" and labeled as brackish. Well, I got them home and started trying to find stuff online and realized they didn't look anything like any dwarf puffer out there. They look more like Auriglobus Modestus but only about 1 inch long (so far?). They've grown a bit in the last month but not too much. So, I have to figure this out. Get this, I called LFS to see what the latin name was according to them, and they said they didn't know the species for sure but the genus was tetraodon. I don't think so, based on internet info. Here's a pic:
