This week we have sort of a poem, but at least a list about what else... rocks! This list piece appeared in the September 1997 issue of the newsletter. The attribution is to "Cross Timber Talk 4/97". Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be much about that phrase on the internet. Only reference that seemed relevant was to a column in "Jewelry Making Gems and Mineral" magazine.
