Thanks, that is interesting. Makes one wonder who teevee is? A former student? Good article. Now, if we can just get down to the drilling. Someone once called drilling the drills of truth. If you were certain that the cone theory was true and you had 4 mil. dollars to spend, where would you place your drills? Would you drill to establish the dykes, or would you take a map, draw the cones, run up a 3D model on the computer, then set your targets to confirm your theory? That's riskier than continuing to follow the dyke but, if the theory is right, much more rewarding. The more conservative and sensible plan is to follow the dyke. The \trouble with theories, though, is that if you profess them, as this professor does, the pressure is on to prove them. Sort of like the advice I got once about pistols. If you're not going to use it, don't take it out of your holster.
