The below via e-mail from Professor Lichter. This sounds very interesting. Ted Ames is THE authority on the Gulf of Maine fisheries.

We're on for Monday June 14 at 7:00 PM at the Maine Maritime Museum.
Ted Ames will come down from Stonington and there will be a few of us from the college. Please invite any and all who are interested in understanding the ecological recovery of our rivers, estuary, and nearshore marine environment. If there are any questions, just write or call me at the number below.

No fee. Also, it will be more of a discussion than a lecture, although Ted will get the conversation started with a short presentation. Please join us.
