I did get it in time on my smartphone but a friend had already told me a few days ago that there was going to be a documentary on SBS 1 on the Shroud of Turin on Sunday 24 March at 7:30 pm.<br /><br />It had not occurred to me to post the news to my blog, but as soon as I got home I did that in: "<a href="http://theshroudofturin.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/shroud-on-sbs-1-australia-at-730pm.html" rel="nofollow">Shroud on SBS 1 Australia at 7:30 pm tonight Sunday 24 March</a>." <br /><br />But because of the three-hour time zone difference between Perth and the Eastern States capitals Sydney and Melbourne the show would have already started when my post appeared. <br /><br />>You might want to remove this comment as it is not relevant to the limestone subject.<br /><br />In the circumstances it was OK to use a comment under my then latest blog post to alert me and others about the imminent Shroud documentary.<br /><br />>Regards,<br />><br />>Graeme <br /><br />Thanks again for letting me know.<br /><br />Stephen E.

>A quick search shows that travertin...Sylvia60<br /> <br />>A quick search shows that travertine aragonite limestone is found all over the world <br /><br />No one said it wasn't. But that doesn't mean it is not relatively rare, compared to calcite.<br /><br />And the chemical signature of that particular travertine aragonite, with its particular levels of strontium and iron, has to date only been found in and around Jerusalem.<br /><br />>and in fact derives its name from the quarries of this stone in the Travertine. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travertine" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travertine</a><br /><br />You are confusing two things. "Travertine" is the name for limestone which is deposited by springs. There is also the more common travertine calcite. <br /><br />But <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aragonite" rel="nofollow">aragonite was first discovered near Aragon in Spain</a>, not at Travertine in Italy. So presumably travertine aragonite, if it exists at Travertine, Italy, was not originally noticed. <br /><br />>It seems to me this subject is just going over old material and doesn't really bring anything new to the subject.<br /><br />As is obvious from my extensive footnotes, I am <i>definitely</i> "going over old material"! That is for the benefit of those readers who may not be aware of that "old material. If you don't like that, then don't read my blog. <br /><br />But it does not follow that I don't "bring anything new to the subject." In my <a href="http://theshroudofturin.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/the-shroud-of-turin-26-other-marks-2.html" rel="nofollow">`Poker holes' post</a> immediately before the post that this comment is under, I brought something new to that subject.<br /><br />Stephen E.

But I can't see that it makes any difference to my post above. <br /><br />That Ray Rogers' original tape samples cannot now be located does not change the fact that he sent samples from STURP's tapes to Dr. J. Kohlbeck for higher magnification, and Kohlbeck found that the limestone from the foot area of the Shroud was the comparatively rare travertine aragonite. <br /><br />And Kohlbeck sent a sample of the aragonite limestone from the foot area of the Shroud to Prof. R. Levi-Setti for examination under an ion microprobe, and Levi-Setti found that the chemical signature of that aragonite limestone's matched that of samples from in and around Jerusalem collected by Dr E. Nitowski.<br /><br />Stephen E. Jones<br />-----------------------------------<br /><b>Comments</b> are moderated. Those I consider off-topic, offensive or sub-standard will not appear.
