While Bryan Baggins and James the Geologist both had busy weeks, that doesn't stop them from talking a little geology. This episode is a journey that begins with the wonderful world of pegmatites. Minerals grow larger than life and while a few things may start off cloudy, at the center, it becomes crystal clear. The trek deflects to the right (in the northern hemisphere, anyways) when the story shifts towards the Coriolis effect. Sadly, the force alone is not enough to cause toilets to flow in a particular direction, but maybe an election can! Go Out And Vote. The ocean current rights the ship as our saga sets sail for the Isle of Rock Hound. Here you will learn where the good places to discover fossils are here in North Texas. Just don't hoard 10,000 fossils. Stay tuned and keep it on the rocks!
