We want to thank everyone that helped with the development of this web site. This was a major undertaking, that could not have been accomplished with out the help of all of the contributors listed on this page. Special mention has to be offered here regarding Robert "Bob" Carroll, the dedicated "shooter", that spent countless hours in the quarry and lab, preparing nearly all of the specimens pictured here on the web site.
