Re: pattern and ecology: Varanids

Now I understand why crocdoc said he missed Mark to me once in the past.

He sure had a way to get people to use that grey matter inside their skulls.

I miss conversations with Mark, but it's also kind of freaky to suddenly see a post by him after all of these years

I honestly feel I missed out on some wonderful conversation opportunities, these two threads were far too good to leave buried in the forum archives though.

The idea exchange was brilliant, I wish we could get some discussions like these going on here today.

I thought the same at first..
I agree Wayne, I love reading these in depth conversations. There is so much we don't know about these animals.

Re: pattern and ecology: Varanids

I was shocked to see this thread. Kinda freaked me out too Dave... Mark was a very close, dear friend of mine and my buddy John Adragna. No one hade as much written literature on varanids and other retiles than Mark had. The dude was a serious goldmine of information. He was even working on his very own African Varanid book. He was also writting a book on cryptozoology. I actually have a rough copy.

I miss Mark a lot. I met Mark in person for the first time in 1993. What a character. Took him to Hooters as soon as he got off the plane. They made him stand on a table, put a tin bucket on his head, put a giant hotdog in his hand and made him dance to the weinie man song. LOL. So funny.

RIP buddy.
