Dunno Charley, but we use them as live bait!

Goldfish/ Carp?

They make great catfish bait...of course when they're much smaller.

Hmmm...it's working on my personal site. Let me try another thread, just to see.

Yeah, it doesn't work on other forums either. Much still be a server issue.

Hey guys.

I think the server issue is resolved. Could someone let me know if your seeing the images.

Thanks.

Charlie, I'm sure you've gotten the email from Steve LeMaster about Virginias website. It looks good.

Keep on keepin' on Charlie

Here's another magnetic piece recovered from the lower strata of Lima-Igl (the iron stained and charred cobble stratum):

Greetings, Dr.Kowalski.

I've been finding a number of artifacts in central Texas that seem somewhat similar to the flint handaxes you have posted on your site. I read your statement at the bottom of your page: “There are NO handaxes in America so they must come from Europe, Africa, or Asia.” Is there a specific term for these artifacts from North America? I'm trying to research these pieces a bit more, but I'm probably using the wrong terminology, and my search has been unproductive.

Here’s a few of the artifacts:

More images of these crude, central Texas tools are located on the following link:

Any guidance as to how I may further research these artifacts will be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

I still think that the most obvious retort of the Club will be that this iron technology is the result of a party of Europeans who were forced to use local resources to make repairs to something.

That being said, I could understand if you were finding iron bands (used as reinforcement} or rivets, nails, even weapons. But why would a group in such a position be making ornamental objects or iron plates? How big is that plate-thingy anyway?

Sneaking into the bear's den to tweak his tail, Charlie?

Fantasy 101:

They decided to make ornamental objects as gifts to the natives since they were a kinder, gentler group of Europeans?

kinder, gentler group of Europeans?

Are you suggesting that the Bush family was already there?
