  • The Yellow Pages - the list of members' interests, available only to members, is being updated for publication early in 2002. A form is enclosed in the latest Bulletin, and you are urged to return it as soon as possible to Neil Cooke, the Yellow Pages Editor. This could be one of the most useful research tools you ever have, for it enables you to exchange information with others interested in the same traveller, area, etc. as yourself.
