Things that make me happy:
The results of a Rock Check are roughly consistent independent of platform.
Edited to add results screenshot as apparently that glitches across instances.
A happy discovery today in the classroom: a piece of granite from the Rockies I’d brought in earlier in the semester to illustrate igneous rock textures, that I’d apparently just left behind! For shame, past me!
@mikamckinnon is always exhorting us to #RockCheck and I didn’t listen. But it’s safe now.
@mikamckinnon Will you accept slabs of Minnesota Ordovician limestone?
What better way to start a new platform than by finding those who appreciate #rocks #minerals #geology & #geo?
#RockCheck! Do you know where your rock is? Photos & stories welcome.
Hi! I'm a disaster researcher, TV & movie science consultant, field geophysicist , & freelance science communicator. I'm usually somewhere along the West Coast of North America.
I run #YouFoundARock & #RockCheck. I’m the admin of #MinCup, and give tasting notes on rocks sorted into Lick & Do Not Lick lists.
