His presentation will explore many shapes and adaptations of larval shells and protoconchs of marine mollusks. He adds. "Shell collectors regard protoconchs as an extra bonus hidden in a beautiful shell. Like the fully grown adults, protoconchs can be contemplated solely for their delicate and .sometimes inlricale beauty. Coexistence of both the larval and adult shell in the same 'package' occurs because of peculiar growth patterns of marine snails. Despite the bedazzling change at metamorphosis, these animals preserve their original shelter as remnants of more turbulent, bygone days."

This was not just a tourism issue, but also a quality of life issue. The Lee County Visitor and Convention Bureau decided to create a "Water Resource Initiative." The Bureau hired a consultant to cover meetings in and around the state — and in Washington — on water qual- ity issues.

Since that time, the Caloosahatchee River has changed from a narrow, winding, shallow river to a straight, 200-feet-wide, nine-feet-deep, fast-moving drain.
