[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 289216, member: 2976"] Still chugging through it all. I'm sure you're just hypothesizing there - because otherwise it would be misrepresenting what I'm saying by simplifying it in the extreme and neglecting to mention a variety of other observations that go along with it :) You can accurately date petrified wood by looking at photographs? Again, I'd like to grab myself some specimens of Agates apparently originating in non-igneous environments for my collection. In this neck of the woods, the spatial relationship between such materials and igneous rocks appears very strong. Every example I can think of comes directly out of or very close to something igneous. Conversely, it seems difficult to find examples [i]within this region[/i] of them originating in non-igneous rocks, though I'm sure they exist. When I can be shown significant numbers of examples of such stuff from sites widely distributed around my region, then I might have cause to review my thinking more. Literature notwithstanding, when the spatial relationship with igneous features in this area appears so strong and examples to the contrary are hard to come by - it does not make sense to put it all down to nothing more than a series of purely coincidental occurences, time and again and again.
