He's gone but not forgotten. Christened Andrew Grebneff 'Snailboi' by yoirs truly because of his passion for mussels. Not the sort that you can still find on a dinner plate at your local bistro but the extinct and/or prehistoric varieties.

There was a time I chatted with him about a trip to the Philippines. Next thing I know, he's got me chasing down some snail, nautilus thing. He neglected to mention there hadn't been any live examples found in over 100 years. Thanks, Snailboi!
