Wow, this news truly left me marveling at the small insignificance of my life and all those I know against the beautiful reality that fish barf will outlive all the greatest achievements of our civilization.
I’m quite confident that I could step in <i>fresh</i> fish vomit and not recognize it. The fact that a palaeontologist could see a pile of fossilized “chalk bits” and draw the conclusion that it’s 66M year old fish vomit is mind boggling.
