Yeah, indeed , very nice link.

I am starting the wonder wetter I should save all those pdf files to my computer... imagine that website would crash too and everything might be lost

I have it printed nearly 1500 p with all figs and tabs

but I mainly need the key, as I am isolating oomycetes at the moment

Eum, yeah, but printing it would not be possible here.
I have a printer that is good to print a few pages, but if I had to print so many it would take weeks, maybe even months and going to a copy shop and letting them print it would cost me a small fortune (so would printing it myself too lol)
and I only use some small parts of it sometimes.

I do concider saving it to my hard disk and putting it on some external disk.

It was difficult here too

But I think an on-line (or harddisk) copy would do the job as well as long as you do not plan to get a specialist in this field

not many work in the field of water molds- can you tell us about yourself and your research?

Sadly its (at the moment) more a hobby than real work since last year I try to isolate them from soils, ponds etc. and get a rough overview on the group.....quite fascinating organisms
