     but you also have all those fabulous Ichthyosaurs, and having the ONLY 
     Archeoptryxii (plural?) in the world is nothing to sneeze at.  I 
     believe Germany is also a source of amber, yes?  How old?  I haven't 
     been able to find any references as to the dates of German amber here 
     in the states.
