Just thought I'd let folks know here that one of my fossils-related web pages--Trilobites In The Nopah Range, Calfornia--has been referenced in a new book by noted paleontologist and author Dr. Donald R. Prothero, entitled "The Story Of Life In 25 Fossils" (published in the summer of 2015). I happened to visit a local "brick and mortar" book store the other day and while perusing the science section came upon Dr. Prothero's latest book, "25 Fossils." There, in the section dealing with trilobites (specifically, in that trilobite chapter where Dr. Prothero lists places to actually find trilobites)--much to my amazement--was the url to my "Nopah Range Trilobites" page.

Please note that I am no way affiliated with Dr. Prothero. I am not attempting to help him sell books, at his behest (that would of course necessarily presuppose that my powers of persuasion are irresistible...).

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
