Hello,
I study the chemical defenses of stick insects. I see some species on your site that I am interested in analyzing the defense spray of. Could you please help put me in contact with the people who have posted some of the inquiries, since they seem to have access to the respective species live?
Here is one example that seems to be a recent post – I would love to contact this person about their insect, as they may still have them!

Please help me identify these insects and let me know how best to control them. I believe they are responsible for the leaves (or the lack of). I just moved in to a house in Benguet, Philippines, which is about 1400m/5000ft above sea level. Current temp range is 55-74F (13-23C). I brought a lot of plants with me and noticed these insects in a tree on the other side of the fence. I’m afraid my plants are next.

Dear Dr. Aaron T. Dossey,
With the quantity of emails that we receive, it is often difficult to track a letter from the previous week because we often delete them after responding.  We do not maintain a database of all of our contributors and considering we have well over 13,000 postings, finding contact information on an older posting can be nearly impossible.  We will try to search our sent mail for early April to see if we have the information you request.  We would also suggest that you post a comment to the letter you have cited since our readership occasionally returns to view letters they have posted in the past.
