that reminds me- one of our volunteers has a binder of all the newsletters set out by a BUNCH of rock societies talking about techniques for fossil prep, cleaning and consolidants. Even a few blurbs on the 'proper' way to clean a specimen with gasoline. When we get it scanned, you want a copy? Date range is mid 70's to 90ish.
