Dr. Walter A. Lyons, Certified Consulting Meteorologist and President of MESONET, INC. is looking for cloud and storm slides to develop and expand his new "Weather Graphics Service" for television weathercasters and educators. MESOMET is a multifaceted meteorological and environmental firm, and its Weather Graphics Service provides slide packets at a subscription fee, including all types of clouds, from fog and stratus to high clouds and all the severe clouds between. MESOMET's collection of over 20,000 slides "will be improved and updated" periodically, and slide packets will be upgraded accordingly to provide variety -over time.

Dr. Lyon's credentials are impressive and include the AMS Seal for Television Weathercasting and appearances on the ABC network as well as various technological advancements, including the first color radar echo animation system.

Dr, Lyons has developed a comprehensive Slides Usage Agreement that clearly spells out his obligation to the slide contributor. I will not elaborate on the terms of the Agreement, but the contributor is promised 20% of receipts attributable to slide usage. For additional information, write to Dr. Walter A. Lyons, President, MESONET, INC., 190 North State Street, Chicago, Illinois 60601.
