I will begin work on the wiki again here, so things will go a little quicker. We will likely not have the shop up when we publish, but for the sake of time we’ll just have to get by with just the wiki.

yes. if AntsDakota helps me with the wiki, than the wiki will move along a lot faster. we could be done much sooner. the big thing i think i winter, as i think antsdakota will have more time.

1.4-Dynamic Pages Update

Dynamic Pages: Fixed bug for Ant Species C Database; all species are now viewable. Also adding sort function, so species display in a-z order. Also added incomplete Ant Species N database. Worked on Ant Species N Database.

Would people be interested in a nice looking wooden test tube rack? It would have solid sides except the top where it would have a cloth you could lift to see the ants. It would also have clips for a heating cable so you could run one along the end of the test tubes. I might also include a digital thermometer. If there is interest I would sell on the AntsDakota site.
