The original document was produced by Maj Bob Shively, then of the
B-2 Test Team, during the early 1980's. This conversion to dedicated
to him for his initial work as part of the Edwards AFB Jewelry Craft
Shop (which was closed about 1991). His efforts made it possible for
many airmen and civilians alike to enjoy rockhounding without the
long hours of research and blind hunting.
This web conversion was accomplished during the Nov 97-Jan 98
time period by Glenn Olson of the Rocket Lab with the help of his
daughter, Karen Mullins. Karen typed in the text while Glenn
darkened and scanned in
the drawings and wrote the HTML tags. In some cases the text was
unreadable and Bob could
not be located.
Rockhounding can be an inexpensive and pleasurable pastime,
something particularly important for young airmen and engineers
on a tight budget. |
