A huge, huge thank you. I am so very grateful to each of you for helping me to move my research forward. I'm getting ready to go to Toronto on the 6th of July to begin a project on Mazon Creek, the fossil locality I mentioned in an earlier lab note. After that I'm going to Europe to visit family and attend a wedding, but I'll try to order to equipment before I leave so that it will be ready for me when I return!

I have been a bit out of commission this past week, but I will absolutely post a note on the focus of all of my research - fossil preservation - early this week!

I've added a stretch goal of $3800 to my page - with the extra funds (approximately 20% of the initial goal), I will be able to extend the scope of my research to either extra species or more sampling points. This expansion would help to connect the experiments with the fossil record in a more in depth manner!

Again - THANK YOU to all of my backers. I am humbled by your generosity.

All my best,
Emma","title":"Lab Note #5: WOW!","backers_only":false,"published_at":"2014-06-29T08:13:29.000-07:00","view_count":16,"publish_on":null,"url":"https://experiment.com/u/on4Tw","image":null,"project_title":"Leaves in stone: does decay control the fossil record?","project_link":"https://experiment.com/projects/leaves-in-stone-does-decay-control-the-fossil-record","project_id":"leaves-in-stone-does-decay-control-the-fossil-record","user_id":13326,"likes":4,"comments":1,"save_url":"/updates/save","editor":"redactor","citations":[],"new_record":false,"is_published":true,"is_draft":false,"save_path":"/updates/save","file_attachments":[],"tags":[],"text_to_be_jsonified_for_read":"To all my backers:
