Take heart, X-man. You excavated and prepped yours with the help of children...he probably had more help than you did.

I'd like to see a closeup of your fish. Can you shoot me a link?

I'll try to post some new pix tonight. Got to teach geology merit badge to a bunch of Boy Scouts after work. Taking a dozen new fossil hunters in the field Sat morning. :-)

"Detrich says the Kansas King Fish, as he calls it, is probably the biggest Cretaceous Period fish specimen ever assembled."

I guess what they don't know won't hurt them.... :P

I thought Alan moved to Florida. A few years ago he tried to donate an X-fish to the state for free, but they had to give him something like a million dollar tax write-off, and it fell through. I think he needed the tax write off because he had a T-rex worth a ton that ended up going to Japan if I remember correct. He used to live in Great Bend. He was also listed on People Magazine as one of the "World's most eligible Bachelors" after selling that T-rex.

I usually don't click the vert stuff, but... when I saw the title, I couldn't resist.
