     Greetings,
     
     My name is Dan Huff and I have represented the National Park Service 
     on the Greater Yellowstone Interagency Brucellosis Committee (GYIBC) 
     for the past three years. I have also served as an advisor to Parks 
     Canada for bison/brucellosis management over the last two. I 
     participated in the development of the Interim Management Plan for 
     bison in Yellowstone National Park (YNP) and Montana and am involved 
     in negotiations for an analogous plan for Wyoming. But then, nobody's 
     perfect!
     
     I have seen some recent traffic on the biology netgroups but have had 
     no real time to be a part of it in recent weeks. However, I would be 
     glad to provide some information about what is going on via BENE and 
     CONSBIO if anyone out there is interested. Could we start by getting a 
     few questions identified and I will try to answer them in annotated 
     fashion. A dialog might be more interesting and informative than a 
     "diatribe," eh?
     
     Let me know.
     
     Thanks, 
     
     Dan
