Thanks for the tip, Auspex! (BTW, I also used to live in Alexandria, VA - miss that place; don't miss the weather though ) Hope this picture will help.
Harry Pristis Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 It doesn't look anything like a horse tooth. It is a bovid tooth. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest
Auspex Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 ...(BTW, I also used to live in Alexandria, VA - miss that place; don't miss the weather though )... Weather? Yesterday morning it was 7 degrees F., with 30-50MPH winds, and has yet to get out of the low 20s. It has just started snowing, and we expect 8" overnight. What's not to love?

New Members MartinR Posted February 16, 2015 Author New Members Posted February 16, 2015 Enjoy, Auspex ! Could the Nr.5 be a bovid tooth as well?
Harry Pristis Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) I love to hear complaints about the weather at this time of year. It's 70 degrees F on my front patio at the moment. Yes, Martin, number 5 could be a sliver of a bovid tooth.
