Hi Everyone,

Sorry not to post very often lately.  I found out that I had an old email
address for when I post so my posts were just fizzling out.  Thanks to 
Doug
for fixing it all!

Anyhow, I am going to put together a display on biting insects in Burmite
for the Carnegie Museum of Natural History's Gem and Mineral Show this
November.  They had asked me to do something dinosaur related as their 
newly
remodeled dinosaur hall will be opening next year.  So I figured, let me 
set
the record straight on what a true Jurassic Park scenario would be.

I have a variety of biting dipterans in Burmite, some even apparently
bloated.  A good friend and amber colleague of mine suggested that I 
should
put in a picture or sketch of a insect biting a dinosaur to key it all
together for the general audience.  I have searched the web, but the 
images
aren't that nice.  Or, they are too cartoony.  Ideally, I'd like the 
insect
not to be a mosquito, rather being a sandfly or midge.  I don't know if I
can be that picky though.

Does anyone have or know of an image that I can use?  I will credit it in
the display if it is copyrighted and permission granted to use.

Thanks,

Scott Anderson
