Hi Everybody, What is the best method apart from carbon isotopoes of dating a recent coprolite? Thank you in advance! Respectfully, Xavier Panades I Blas 55, Marksbury Road Bedminster Bristol BS3 5JY England (EC) http://www.acs.bolton.ac.uk/~xp1pls/ From: baldwin <baldwin@shsu.edu> Reply-To: paleonet@nhm.ac.uk To: paleonet@nhm.ac.uk Subject: Re: paleonet stir it up? Date: Mon, 03 Apr 2006 08:22:12 -0500 Xavier, This inter/intra Iberian sniping is downright bloody boring. I (and I suspect most others on this list) have very limited interest - and now very limited sympathy - for these silly digressions and red herrings. Why don't you back off. If this continues I'm going to petition to have you excluded from the list. Otherwise I will drop this list. Your belated sweetening via matters linguistic and culinary hardly leavens this thread.
