[edit] Someone added "poopy shit"
Someone added "poopy shit" in front of granite in the last sentence of the first paragraph.
[edit] Shaly?
The article characterizes the Johnnie Formation as "varicolored shaly". Is "shaly" not an adjective awaiting a noun? Or should the word be "shale"? Myron 09:23:09, 2005-08-08 (UTC)
[edit] Regarding timelines
Forgive my ignorance, but why does the article read "1700 million years ago" instead of "1.7 billion years ago"? Is that a common use in geology? --Ignis33 17:03, August 8, 2005 (UTC)
