Responce to Morrison's comment


Posted by Donald L. Johnson 15 Jun 1999 14:51:37

This is great. I'm going to respond for sure in a few days. My general position, without the specifics is that most of the points
Vance made in his INQUA newsletter note need in fact to be expanded even MORE. This whole business of Paleopedology
can be reduced to it being simply the study of buried soils, where pedodiagenesis may or may not have occurred. The longer a
soil is buried the more likely pedodiagenesis has occurred. Further, the word "soil" is perfectly sound, usable, honorable,
unimpugnable, and time tested. It is a term that we all use constantly, some of us every day, whose meaning is almost always
clear in context, like most broad and general terms. More soon. Don Johnson
