I got a positive reply on the issue of lizard vs. cockroach question.
I can't figure out how to get my mailer to reply correctly.  However,
our Notes program works well, so forgive me for posting the reply and
a question:

The question: 

What kind of lizards do you have?  Did you catch them in the Texas outdoors,
or in a pet store?  If latter, how much do they cost?  How big is your
vivarium?  What else do you have to feed them?  Any medical items?  If you
don't have the lizards now, what was their ultimate fate?

Thanks,
Lars Ericson
