I include in this message a copy of the information I got from Melbourne
as an example of what I was hoping for.  I would appreciate getting
information from the outfits on the second list above, and from other
places too.  (I thought I had an entry from Bristol, but I can't find it.
I can cobble something together.  What about Cambridge, England?)
I'll wait another couple of days before posting what I've got, just in case.
