Papers for Thursday 23 Feb 2009: Stratigraphic Paleontology

Allright all you secular humanist-atheistic-Darwinists! What better way to celebrate the birth of Our Lord (Charles Darwin) AND the publication of His Holiest Book (The Origin) than with a SedStratPaleo meeting!

Noel (who is a hell-bound evolutionist) has suggested an appropriatly Darwin-flavored topic for us to mull over, as well: STRATIGRAPHIC PALEONTOLOGY! He's agreed to put up with us in his very own house for the evening of Feb 23, 2009 (Monday), so gather up some beer, some food, and some blasphemy, and we'll see you all there.

The papers for the meeting are:
