I have for years been fascinated by the stone spheres found in banana plantations and have assumed they were man-made. I found out otherwise this morning....
Stan, Those are great links, but I don't see the "perfection" of the spherical shape in the natural versions that is evident in the "finds". Also, IIRC, the CA...
It's taking some time to load the pages, but I just wanted to make a comment. I don't know why I didn't follow up on stone spheres last year. From about March...
