I picked up a copy of the "Short North Gazette" this morning, a free monthly publication in Columbus, and it included several items by and about Tom Thomson, who died not long ago. Readers of this list who helped identify a friend of Thomson with him and Ernie Limes will find the answer on page 16, along with several tributes to Tom. This issue is not online today, but will be shortly, at www.shortnorth.com . Readers will learn more about Tom there, but for many hundreds of pages from him see his website at www.sailorthomson.com . --Bill Whan, in the Long North ______________________________________________________________________ Ohio-birds mailing list, a service of the Ohio Ornithological Society.
