Hey Jamie long time my friend.  I will be getting a load of that up in Letchworth I also have located the Eastern escarpment of Onondaga but gotta go and get it.  I love searching and doing research on local stuff.  I have info on chert in most of the eastern states and eveytime I go somewhere I look...its almost a sickness for rocks..lol  Anyway great points Jamie and talk to u soon.
