Chert
Marc St Louis:
I was a bit stupefied today. My girlfriend is a musician and she has been rehearsing for a Christmas concert at a Cathedral in the town closest to me with other musicians, this Cathedral dates back to the 1800's. As we were walking from the back parking lot to the front doors I noticed some familiar looking stone on the ground right beside the walls of the Cathedral. I bent down and picked it up and sure enough it was chert. Then I had a closer look at the church and low and behold I saw where the chert came from. The whole Cathedral is made of large slabs of stone and this stone is chert. Amazing. The chert looked to be of pretty good quality so naturally I took a bit of time to gather some. I guess I will be making some points from some "holy" stone :).

Marc St Louis:
I'm pretty flexible when it comes to religion and the thought crossed my mind to come back and chip some chert off the building itself but........:)
