    There's a set slides (approx. 120) with an accompaning cassette tape
available from the Mormon run book store chain "Desseret Book Store" by a man
by the name of Jack West. The set of slides are called the Jack West slides.
They were taken by Jack West back somewhere around 1940 or 1950 (judging from
some of the cars in the shots). Now if you want archeological evidence for the
Book of Mormon, particularly evidence that addresses MANY specific issuse in
tBoM (I'm getting like net.movies.sw here) then see this set of slides, they
really come up with some very difficult points to argue against in support of
tBoM. I would love to go into some descriptions here but then after all these
are slides and a picture is worth a thousand words ( 4K bytes ) and I don't
think most of you would want to see that (times the 120 slides) come through
your systems. Go see the slides.

                                                     MAB

P.S.-If you don't have a Desseret Book Store in your neighbourhood just call
     the local Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and they'll send
     out some local member or missionary with a set of the slides and will
     happily show them to you. Just make it clear that you only want to see
     the slides and not have any discussions (unless of course you would like
     to have some discussions with them).
