Hi, Nathan–
You and Lanny have given me more ammunition in case the opposition in
rocks-and-fossils gets tougher, especially when it comes to giving a break to
miners and commercial collectors. The quarry as a source of scientific info is
a good image; I had spoken of how amateurs help scientists, but not how miners
do – I should have known from the way they give us collectors a lot (even if we
may have to wait until they abandon the mine).
