I found "something" in a creek bed in NC about 10 years ago.
http://forum.treasurenet.com/index.php/topic,275388.0.html
I got someone at a university in Massachusetts to look at these photos. They said it was more or less geological or geothermal related...
Eventually a fellow showed up and asked about this fossil. I still have no idea how he even knew who I was.
I called him to the area under my porch and produced this rock/fossil. He was very curt and said it was worthless and left.
Previously I had always kept this rock under the porch as it is too big and heavy to keep in the house. Well after meeting this guy I put it in the trunk of my car. That night someone came onto my property and tore up the area under my porch where I used to keep this rock.
The police called it attempted burglary but the thief never tried to come inside the house.
This fossil is now stored much more safely and at a completely different location.
I have basically ID'ed myself or at least the general area where I live on this forum.
Maybe that is how this guy found me? Maybe I'm completely wrong in this.
What is this rock and why would someone risk jail to steal it?
