[Rockhounds] Carbon Reservoir

[Lawrence Rush]

Thanks! For those interested in this kind of thinking, see Gold's abstract

http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/pagerender.fcgi?artid=49434&pageindex=1#page

It gives some pretty interesting thoughts on the origins of carbon, and the 
cosmic connections, if not coal petrology directly.
