[Aqualist] Iconic Quaternary sites across Australasia

[Paul Hesse]

Great idea.  Can I also suggest that we get some high quality diagrams
(powerpoint or otherwise) together for these sites?  Many are ones that
none of us have been to and for which we don't have photographs, and the
quality of scanned images is often low (I'm especially thinking of old
pollen records, but there are others).  The AQUA site would be a great
repository of these teaching materials.
