 For those of you attending the GSA Annual meeting in New Orleans next
week, there is a meeting that may be of interest to you.  The late
Cenozoic biostratigraphy used by the oil companies has been discussed
in previous posts to this listserver.  The on-going project to develop
a "Gulf Coast Equivalency Chart" will have a working meeting during the
GSA.

  We have a space at the Crowne Plaza Hotel on Sunday, November 5 from
2:00pm to 6:00pm.  The room is the Bayou "B".  Unfortunately, it's
listed in the program as "SEPM Paleontological Network".  The session
is expected to be concentrated on foraminiferal and calcareous
nannofossil events from the Oligocene through the Pleistocene.  If
you're going to be in town and have interest in the project, feel free
to drop in.   

  The project is being run by an ad hoc committee of the Gulf Coast
Section-SEPM.  Garry Jones of Unocal and Rich Lane of Amoco posted a
description of the project to PaleoNet and Micropal back in late
September.
