and that quartz crystals can, in the proper hands, foretell the past and
protect the bearer from untimely isostatic rebound. Beyond these claims,
we simply beseech all students of geology to keep their eyes on the road
while driving past Interstate roadcut outcrops, no matter how siren-like
the rocks call for their attention(, that they not perish and we, their
loving universities, lose their tuition money). For more information and
