WyomingRocks! Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Well, it is really surprising to me that in the month I join I get VFOTM. I found the TRex tooth and was doing some research online which led me to the forum and then joining it. That tells me that the Fossil Forum is succeeding in being able to educate or help people with their fossil questions. Stephen WyomingRocks!

WyomingRocks! Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 You're part of the "help squad" too, y'know! Funny how that works... Yeah, I realize that I am part of the "help squad"; I keep looking here to see if I can help somebody with a fossil id or something else but I guess at this point I don't know enough yet. Hopefully, in the near future I will have 'knowledge' that I can parcel out! I don't want to just receive but also give back to the forum. Stephen WyomingRocks!
