18 thousand pieces, wow. I solute their generosity. Can we give the Partners in Paleontology award posthumously to John, Jbswake?

Here is a link to an earlier post telling about John's death and showing photos of some of his amazing fossils.

That's a good idea. I hadn't noticed that he didn't have that award, though I think he had donated fossils to science before.
