I'll be darned if this isn't one of the neatest sedimentary structures I've ever seen!

Armored mudballs are a special rare and unique geological and historical feature in Massachusetts. We should recognize, protect, and celebrate them.

I hope that signing this petition will help to further awareness of lithified Armored Mud Balls, the wealth of geological wonders in Massachusetts, and of the importance of geology as a science.

I'm signing because I'm a geology student, and this sedimentary structure is very rare. I hope we can protect them and makes more people know that.

Armored mudballs are a rare and wonderful geological phenomenon that we are lucky to have within our borders. Honoring them at the state level just seems like the right thing to do.

I think Massachusetts should officially recognize these formations that are unique to our area.

This type of Armored mudballs are unique to Massachusetts and is a wonderful and important geological feature and should be recognized as such.

Franklin County is the only place in the world that these mud balls have been found.

I want to contribute to the effort to raise awareness about our local geology, which, as an avid outdoors person, has enriched my explorations in Massachusetts. I want to thank Dr. Little, whose course I took at Greenfied Community College, for teaching a locally-based geology course that has enriched my appreciation for nature in New England.

We are fortunate to have rare Jurassic evidence in Massachusetts. Fossilized material is extremely difficult to find and preserve. It takes years of professional training to be able to find, identify, and preserve these for history and future generations. I fully support the bills to make our state known for something remarkable and valuable.

I'm signing because Prof. Richard Little has devoted his life to Geology and unique landforms. His extensive research on Armored Mud Balls has revealed them unique to Massachusetts. The state deserves recognition of this discovery of a rare geologic sedimentary feature.

These are really cool!

My brother has worked with Prof. Little and has explained at great length the work they have done together. The young people need to know about what roamed our earth years ago and how it was formed. Keep up the great work Prof. Little

Professor Little rocks!

Mudballs, Armored Mudballs. I'm the kind of kid who loves armored mud balls.

I would love to see the armored mudball become the state sedimentary feature of MA!
