Yes, Tim, I would like to see the public embrace interactive keys/ software.

But having produce one (fruit fly expert system [INTKEY] now also in LucID, go to
http://delta-intkey.com/ffl/www/_wintro.htm
I am sorry to say after 8 years the Public has not come to my door the way they reacted to Paul Hebert's DNA barcodes.

Earlier I named a new species after Bill Gates, but no response either.

So, sadly I not sure what we, as a community, need to do to promote our science as we see it. All I can tell you is what has failed.

Oh, well ...

Chris,
    Curious if you think the public or taxonomy will ever embrace
interactive keys/software?   Seems to me that this technology may give
taxonomy the boost it needs.
Tim
