WELCOME to the Ríos Resource Bank.  The following essays and presentations are for your own personal information, and are grouped loosely by class or area.  They are all original materials authored by me and not for public distribution or further use without permission.  Choices with asterisks are of general interest--and fun--regardless of class listing.  Have fun, and thank you for visiting.
