To Our Readers

I Remember Each of my science projects from high school—because they were about rocks. From the time I was a small boy, I had loved geology. So during the last three years of high school, in biology, chemistry, and physics, I managed to create a project that my teachers approved for each of those subjects but which was really about rocks!

I even managed to win an award one year and earned a spot at the state science fair. That was pretty exciting.

But even more exciting was the discovery process in those projects. The first one analyzed fossils of our local region. The specimens were mostly those I had found myself—in gravel pits, along river banks, in road beds. They were forms of ancient sea life, left behind when the ocean covered the land millions of years before. Finding each fossil and identifying it had always been an amazing process of discovery to me.
