    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

anyone herping Hawaii?

(In Oahu)For chameleons, drive the Pali highway to the overlook (southeast part of the island) before it drops down. There's a parking lot there and the locals walk the trails around there. I found a few not far from the parking lot, but they were out of reach. Nice big ones. There are also some locals who keep and breed them in outdoor pens between the Waimanalo and Koko Crater area. I think you can also find dart frogs in the valley down here as well. There are a few local parks where the locals told me to look, but I didn't have time while I was there. I stopped at one botanical garden at the base of the mountains, but no luck. Near the botanical garden there was a wild looking park with hiking trails that looked like a sure thing, but I had no time to check it out. I can't remember the name, but if you keep taking the Pali highway and go east, then south and finally west toward Hanauma Bay, you will see it on the right if you keep your eyes open.

Make sure and go to the Honolulu zoo to see the free-roaming day geckos. They are very localized as the Bul-buls will snag them if they get out in the open.

Good luck.
