fossil traffic



Roger:
Sorry, I didn't understand you!. I most take it as a flame?!

Someone wants to sell a fossil (Guau!, so much money)!!. So think all that a
scientist can do for research with this money, scientists that usually not
ever have founds neither resources enough (sometimes not ever as to pay the
campaigns)!. So think what would happen if all people begins to collect for
money.

Paleontologists have no much money so we neither win much money with
Paleontology, but we give much to all the world (including you), enormously
more valuable than money.

(Amigo: surely Jack would be informed of the existence of dinosaurs even not
seeking the bones on the 
store).

and:
>and the specimen is destroyed forever

If this fossil is collected for commerce and sold, the information it
provides will be destroyed forever (That is really bad). Lets stop it (we can!).
