I have talked to many of you and the feedback I am getting is:</div> <div> If there is an agreement on the table or ALL screeners on that table them it is OK to do that, otherwise read on... </div> <div> This weekend this awesome Covington blade was found on the screen by Corner Tang Ed. He immediately realized it was on Juan Davison's side of the table, not much but definitely on Juan's side. Just like the rules state he handed it over to a very appreciative Juan Davison. Ed had not had a particularly great day and I am sure he would have love to have had this nice blade in his collection but this kind of screening table manners is exactly how screening on tables with others is supposed to work. I'm sure Ed and Juan will have an appreciation for each other for years to come. </div> <div> So please, be aware where you are on the table, if you need dirt just get my attention and I will put more on the table. Slower diggers please realize that there some diggers screen faster than others, if you like to go slow please don't be offended if I have to put more dirt on the table (before you have cleared your area) to accommodate the faster screeners. It's the only way this will work. Ideally, the slower sifters should be on the screens together but that is not always possible - so be prepared for more dirt to be put on the table if I have screeners waiting. </div> <div> Instead of focusing on the bad when I get complaints I wanted to wait until something positive happened like it did between Ed and Juan. They are at nearly every dig so they have learned how to keep peace on the tables from the rules and experience. All diggers should follow their lead to have a happy group of diggers for years to come! My hat's off to ya!</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="128d5e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="12935e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="12915e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> <IMG SRC="12955e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="12975e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> Juan Davison found this one, you just can't get to many photos of a good arrowhead!  Chalcedony</div> <div> Scallorn.  Juan left very happy!</div> <div> <IMG SRC="12995e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="129b5e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="129d5e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="129f5e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="12a15e070.jpg" border=0 width="350" height="263" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> </td> </tr></table></body>
