Hi Faith,
Albert mentioned to me on October 30th that he had not yet shipped out BX
450 but was hoping to have it in the mail that week.

To answer your more general question, how to know if we won the lottery and
will receive our request, we do not know until the padded brown envelope
arrives. I responded to four BX's this summer or fall and received nearly
all the items I requested. I do not know if that is typical or if I just
ask for species others do not desire.

I see this process as similar to growing bulbs. We plant them, we wait, and
then if they come up we know they are viable. In comparison, the BX is
fast. I watch my mailbox as eagerly as I watch pots for leaves to poke up
through the pumice.
