International Slime Mold Organization (ISMO) pronounced IS-MOE

[RyChu]

Hey y'all!

Has anybody ever thought of starting an international organization that makes decisions regarding slime molds? Like how they can be used in research or what the standards for raising them are... I'm pretty sure many fields have an organization that makes decisions like that. The group would essentially publish papers to set standards or compile information about slime molds, encourage public education, and so on. Kind of like a broader version of Ian's idea with the slime mold library.

Does anybody think that sounds like a reasonable idea?

Okey dokey, I can put up a pile of physarum research papers and I can start writing up notes on bulking physarum up for handing out at public  events. If anyone thinks they're useful I could annotate my intelligence and the amoeba lecture (it's got no words in it at the moment)
