you have done well! perhaps a little too over-zealous with the concretions at times, but you are not the only one who has suffered that fate :) and by all means, in the future, continue to take it home if theres any question as to whether its fossil or concretion.

That's a lot of fossils :)

What a wonderful menagerie! Who would believe that such as register lay buried in the strata? To open the leaves, to unroll the papyrus, has been an intensely interesting though difficult work, having all the excitement and marvelous development of a romance. And yet the volume is only partly read. Many a new page I fancy will yet be opened. -- Edward Hitchcock, 1858
