uh thats an artist rendition of a...giant sea snail? Don't think its a squid cuz of the big shell.

**Jones** · 08-12-2008, 03:07:35

Nope. Think further back in time.

**RBS** · 08-12-2008, 03:18:06

farther back..hmmm....dinosaur snail?

Oh wait. Is that a Nautilus?

**Jones** · 08-12-2008, 03:22:32

Nope, but that's a good guess.

**RBS** · 08-12-2008, 03:32:57

Hmm. You know I think I saw something about these in an IMAX movie. They are used to date excavations. Started with an A perhaps?

**Jones** · 08-12-2008, 03:34:56

Yep, you are right on track.

**RBS** · 08-12-2008, 03:48:33

Ammonite! Dude, I just saw that film while on vacation! How quickly we forget.

**Jones** · 08-12-2008, 03:51:23

So did I!

Did we go to the same place?

Anyway, congrats.

I saw it at the Bullock Museum in Austin, TX. How coincidental. Next one...

**RBS** · 08-12-2008, 04:04:12
