No Ochre Jelly in OSRIC?

Any particular reason, or did I miss something?

Looks like Black Pudding is missing too? Slime, Green and Mold, Brown/Yellow are in the Other Creatures section, so I assume that the Pudding, Black and Jelly, Ochre would be there too....

They are in the d20 SRD under Ooze, but I don't see them in the OSRIC pdf I have.

The Black Pudding & Ochre Jelly are going into the Dangerous Dungeons volume, I think. I'm not sure why they didn't make it into Osric, perhaps left behind the sink?

I know I did some OSRIC conversions of a few of them for a Jim Kramer module. He may have already let Stuart know.

Maybe somebody didn't like the color Ochre? j/k
The thing to remember about Gary Gygax is he was more inclusive rather than exclusive. He did not call people who liked newer versions of D&D "3tards" or "4ons" or whatever. He may have been critical of things that came later, but he stopped short of making fun of the people who liked that stuff--it's a subtle difference but it is a difference. People should never confuse the OSR or Old School D&D with Gary's personal preferences. People who do are turning EGG into some quasi-pseudo "gamer Jesus", and I think that's wrong.

What do ochre jellies smell like? Can you see them with infravision?
