Oh ok, have you mailed them to Mexico yet? That is really where they need to go, I can have the world experts examine them and save the collection for ever.
Also you can mail it to me and I will check it out, but I am kind of a dumbass compared to the Mexicans....
If you mail it to both places we can work on it together and get you something resembling an answer.

Ok I guess I will just have to wait then. It usually takes about a month for the mail to arrive in Mexico, so it might be there around now.
Did you label it in a way that they will know what it is when they see it, or will I have to be like...hey man, did any mushrooms come in the mail recently? Must be a maynardjameskeenan collection...
All of the collections should have the mushroomobserver observation number written on the bag, that way they will know what it is and customs won't. I told them to expect mushrooms in the mail with numbers written on them, so they will know exactly what to do if they get a package like that...

With the package I included a note; on it was the mushroomobserver.org observation number, the date of the collection, and what state and county they were found in. I put them in a zip-lock bag and put them in a DVD case so they won't get damaged in en route, they are also in a bubble-wrap envelope.
I sent out three packages, One to whoever Womperknicker is, Joust and one to el Instituto de Ecologia.

Yes I don't know about that, the problem is that they do not actually get paid. So yea, its a cool job studying Psilocybes, but you show up every day and the paycheck never comes, so how cool is it really? Well the cool thing is that they do it for the love of mushrooms, so whatever you send will be fully appreciated.
So maybe you wish you were there and maybe you don't, but it's not a job that I would take.

Ok I am going to revise this post. It is an awesome job, and I would take it, in fact I did for three weeks last month. But then I left.
Its a lot of work. There are a lot of type collections. Some of them only have a few micrograms of material.
So yes, it is the most important work in the world, paid or not. Is it my job? I don't know, I hope Alonso does it. That will save me 30 years of work.
