paleonet Coprolit dating



Hi Everybody,

What is the best method apart from carbon isotopoes of dating a recent 
coprolite?

Thank you in advance!

Respectfully,

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.
