Dear friends,

Hello Conch-L,

A month ago, George Sangiouloglou posted a piece about a discovery of
giant fossil "oysters" high in the Andes Mountains in Peru.  Recently
our local shell club printed a picture of the find in the club
newsletter.  I have posted it for anyone who would like to take a look.
The picture quality is not great (scanned from a halftone, which was
probably copied from a newspaper), but still interesting I think.

Dear George,

I looked at the interesting photograhs of the "giant shells from Peru". I
have seen almost the same concretions in the Jura exposed at the coast of
Cap Griz Nez in northern France. Here the beach is full with con I think I
only have a diapositive of them, so I can't sent you a photograph.
