"Tires will leave black films on rocks." I am glad to have that cleared up!

Here's another revelation: "If the rock was partially buried, half of it will be clean and the other half covered with dirt."

Fun read. I found a great piece of leaverite a few days ago. It looked really neat with a beautiful rusty red color on some sections and some nice granular gray portions. When I got it home and sawed it open I quickly discovered that I had collected a piece of concrete with a coat of rust all around it.

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
