 >Why not join the Palaeontological Association?  We are based in Britain, 
but we have members from all over the world.  In fact, we have more members 
from the USA than we do from England!

>For your money, you get 4 parts per year of a top-quality Journal 
'Palaeontology' (yes, that's how we spell it over here!), containing about 
40 papers on all aspects of Palaeo.  You also get the Pal. Ass. Newsletter, 
with meeting and book reviews, and details of forthcoming meetings (not just 
in Europe).

>And you get special member's discounts on all our publications, which 
include back copies of 'Palaeontology' itself, the journal 'Special Papers 
in Palaeontology' (one of the few Palaeo journals that specialises in large 
papers), and the excellent value 'Field Guide to Fossil' series (the 2 
latest are on the superbly-preserved Cretaceous vertebrates and arthropods 
from the Santana and Crato Formations, Brazil, and the plants of the Upper 
Coal Measures).  
>
>The price hasn't gone up for 5 years.  Ordinary Members are 50 US dollars 
or 28 pounds sterling.  Student Members are an amazing 20 US dollars or 
11.50 pounds sterling (that really is excellent value).  And you can pay by
