discussions regarding taphonomy



Hi Norm MacLeod--

As you are obviously an integral player in the PaleoNet group,  I am writing
this note to you to solicit your advice.  I would like to see some
discussion on PaleoNet regarding the taphonomy of compression fossil insects
and flora as found in lacustrine material,  especially as represented in the
fossil record of the Eocene lacustrine beds in Europe, Asia and the western
interior of the United States.  I would post to the list myself but I feel
that since I am an amateur collector of Eocene compression fossils, other
list-members would not be eager to respond.   So, I wonder, do you have any
advice for how a discussion about this topic might be  initiated?  Thank you
for your time and consideration of this request. 

A bientot,

David
