No full textThis is slightly edited, informal email dialogue that took place between August 1999 and March 2000 among Lee Bartel, (the moderator) University of Toronto, Joyce Bellous, McMaster University, Wayne Bowman, Brandon University, and Ken Peglar, Peel Regional School Board.
Lee Bartel teaches in the music education division at the Faculty of Music, University of Toronto. His interests include music response, social psychology of music, and conditions of music learning. He is the Director of the Canadian Music Education Research Centre and co-editor of the Canadian Music Educator.
Joyce Bellous teaches at the McMaster Divinity College in Hamilton Ontario. Her specialty is philosophy of education which she has taught at the University of Alberta and The University of Calgary. Her research interests having to do with children focus on character formation and the role that identity plays in the formation of character.
Wayne Bowman teaches at Brandon University in Manitoba His specialty is music education and music philosophy. He is the author of the book, Philosophical Perspectives on Music, published by Oxford University Press. He has three grown children, two of whom make their living playing violin.
Ken Peglar, has taught high school for 22 years and currently teaches visual art and OAC philosophy at Turner Fenton Secondary in Brampton. For 13 years he was a music and history teacher. He is a founding member of Ontario Philosophy Teachers Association (OPTA)

Palaeolimnological responses of nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project to recent environmental changes and human impact detected by plant macrofossil, pollen, and faunal analyses
No full textThis paper presents multi-proxy palaeolimnological analyses from recent sediments in the nine CASSARINA lakes in northernmost Africa, three from each of Morocco, Tunisia, and Egypt. The lakes are diverse, ranging from hypersaline to brackish lagoons and fresh-water lakes from high to low conductivity and pH. The macrofossils analysed include fruits, seeds, and vegetative remains of plants, lagoon and fresh-water Mollusca, a range of other aquatic animals, and from one site in each country, Ostracoda and Foraminifera. The diverse macrofossils are multi-proxy indicators of environmental change, and demonstrate changes in response to human activities in the catchments of all the lakes. The three Egyptian Nile Delta lakes have received massive inputs of fresh-water due to modifications of the flow of the R. Nile culminating in the Aswan High Dam built in 1964. Elsewhere, water withdrawal is frequently a serious threat. One lake with high biodiversity in Morocco has been drained and cultivated, and a rare acid-water lake in Tunisia is in danger of drying up. The internationally famous Garaet El Ichkeul in Tunisia, which was so important for birds, has become permanently saline with a loss of diversity. All the lakes are affected by agricultural and/or urban run-off and are experiencing changes as a result of human activities. Several are in a marginally sustainable condition, whereas others are permanently damaged
