Here's what you've been saying about me... (boy are my ears burning!)
Subject: Your website
From: Helene Studer (10/19/97)
Hi Scott, just poked around your 'Tulum' site - great stuff! I've just
returned from there for the second time (the first was 25 yrs ago!) and
loved it as much as the first time.
If you'd like a link to my page, one of my pages is on 'Archaeology' where
I've written an article about my visit to Egypt, and also an article about
my experience as a volunteer 'digger' on a site in Belize (Maya). Just
thought I'd try....
Keep up the good work!

Don't sweat it. She has told me things from before that I cannot trace either.
She has taken me through sites and we have found "different from the tour"
things. . . but that does not mean that it is correct.
Your Web site is interesting even without it. I need down to earth sites
like yours. (I have two of geocities so far).

Subject: Your great page at RainForest/Vines/4273
From: "Gary Kelley" (08/14/97)
I think this site is fantastic. Thank-you for the E-mail ...
may I link you on my page which is just beginning to get put together?
I am looking for good sites to link up with mine which is devoted to all
Native American interests. My main interest is in the fields of myths,
religion, and healing.
I am not of native descent but have always been interested in
all things about the various Native societies. I am presently getting
my Masters in Southwest American History at the University of Central
Oklahoma and hope to get a second on at OU in Native American culture.
Please look at my page and perhaps you can give me some ideas
for it. My son who works on creating homepages is helping me somewhat
whenever he has the time between classes in Dallas.

I've enjoyed browsing and reading through your Tulum pages. Great work!
I too have traveled through the Yucatan and have learned much from the
natives. If only I had more time, I would put up a web page on Edzna,
the massive ruins near the city of Campeche.
You may browse through some of my photos on Guatemala's Lake Atitlan at:
www.artemaya.com/photo.html
One of the most spectacular crater (calderas) lakes in the world.
Also, may browse my Mosquito Coast, Honduras website at:

Wow!! Nice job, Scott! Tulum was the first Mayan site that I
visited. That was back in the late '80's and has lead to a life-
impacting interest in archeaology. I'm currently involved in digs
ranging from the Maya of Southern Belize to Native Americans of New
England.
My wife, a high school social studies teacher, would like to use
your web site (if you don't mind) as a resource for the "ancient
americas" part of her lecture in '97-98. Your photos are certainly
better than ours and the text is concise and informative.
If you develope interests in Southern Belize (Toledo District) and
need info, let me know.

I wanted to thank you for the wonderful tour of Tulum. I have been there 3
times and find the most beautiful place. After visiting it and other mayan
cities, I have become very interested in the Pre Columbian culture and hv
read many books on the subject. Do you hv any other sites? thanks again, very
well done! Shozgirl

Hi!
What great shots of Tulum. You are to be congratulated on a fine web site.
Cheers,

Cool site. Pretty girl. Nice idea to organize it as a tour.
The pictures are excellent and the text well-written and
informative. You might experiment with the table tag to
make the text easier to read:
[HTML code snipped]
This would give you normal text on a white background, but only
in the middle of the page. It's just an idea.
Thanks for posting the link! Makes me want to visit Tulum.

Consider the background problem solved. (7/31/97)
From: GlenR (05/30/97)
I enjoyed you tour very much, do you know of any other web sites on
Meso-American sites? Just one note the text was hard to read with the
textured background. Thanks
Glen
