Just have to say...thanks for posting your old schematics and maps, Mattvid. They're excellent!

(I only just now saw this thread. Yes, Circus = lame.)

I want Matt to know that it's entirely his fault that I can no longer look at rock strata along the roadways without thinking 'gee, I wonder if that's the kind of rock where trilobites might lurk...'

The world is huge, and I love that we have so many people on this board who help us realize that.

Hehe...

I'm on family vacation in New York this week and I'm looking at every rock road cut too. Earlier this week, I took 6 of Amy's aunts, uncles, cousins and her mom fossil hunting.

My souvenir of the trip? A geological map of the finger lakes region. I'm just a big geek.

The evening before the Pennslyvania micro-meat of last Friday evening, I met up for BBQ and beer with a college friend who was an old rock-hound (yes, he was both old(ish) and a Geology major); what's he been doing since we graduated? Working for the Federal Reserve Eek

He says he mostly works now on systems integrations; not coding, but being able to see what's needed and tell other people how to make it happen.
