Oh...and by the way...if there are those of you who REALLY want to hear the fireworks, James Fassett will be presenting a paper entitled 'The Paleocene Dinosaurs of the Ojo Alamo Sandstone, San Juan Basin, New Mexico and Colorado' at the 64th Annual Meeting of the Rocky Mountain Section of the Geological Society of America. This meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico runs from 9-11 May, 2012 and he is scheduled to present on May 11 from 11:15-11:30. For more information, click on THIS LINK. Interestingly, Spencer G. Lucas (one of Fassett's detractors) is presiding over the paleontology session that day. Could be VERY interesting!
