How cool! I'm Richard Montgomery (Lister)...and mycology is my other huge
passion (let's see, Morchella, Cantherellus, Tricholoma magnivelare,
Agaricus bernardii and silvicola, Boletus appendiculatus and aureus, need I
say more?) ! Along with music (guitar, mando, steel-drum, piano), painting
large abstract and realistic canvases of bones and shot-up discarded metal,
detecting for gold-quartz and meteorites, photograhy, gardens,
skiing....started with entomology, frisbee freestyle, writing, hopping
frieght trains in college....What-a-World!!!!
