Project MICRO (Microscopy In Curriculum - Research Outreach) is MSA's
middle school outreach program.  Many of you have heard of it, but you may
not have visited its website (URL below).  Now would be a good time,
because Nestor, in his abundant spare time, has just posted a major
revision.  You'll find up-to-date reviews of lots of books, videos &
CD-ROMs about microscopy.  Most, but not all, are for children; you may get
some good holiday gift ideas.  There is also a much-expanded website
hotlink list.  If you are aware of anything that has been missed, please
let me know.

I also need  potential sources of funding for microscopes for schools.  I'm
looking for a foundation or program that might be interested in an
equipment-only proposal at the $40-50K level.  Suggestions?
