- Jason P ScheinResearcherHi Cheri, It was our pleasure. Evan was a lot of fun and made a lot of new friends. He's welcome back any time. And thanks so much for supporting our project! JasonFeb 14, 20150
- Rianne WessellsBackerMr. Schein, My daughter and I met you at Field Station Dinosaurs way back in August I believe. Although she didn't say a word, I just wanted you to know how much you inspired her to become a paleontologist and how for weeks on end she would say, I can't believe I met a real paleontologist! Thank You again and Good Luck to you and the team!Feb 12, 20151
- Jason P ScheinResearcherHi Rianne, Thank you so very much for the donation, and of course for the very nice note. The highest praise I could ever get, and the greatest prize I could ever earn, is knowing that I've inspired people (especially kids) to be interested in a career in science. Everything else - even getting to dig up dinosaurs - is gravy. I hope you both can join us in the field some time, and of course you're always welcome for a special tour at the State Museum. Thanks again, JasonFeb 12, 20150
- Lance SchnatterlyBackerLooking good Jason. Added a little bump to keep things moving :)Feb 11, 20151
- Jason P ScheinResearcherWow, Lance - thank you so much. That's really very generous of you. Thanks you. -- JasonFeb 11, 20150
- BarbaraBackerJason - Spencer is making a $10.00 donation from his allowance, he knows it's not a lot of money but he hopes it can help. As you know he is only 9 years old so $10.00 is a lot for him to give up.Feb 10, 20151
- Jason P ScheinResearcherHi Barbara and Spencer, $10 is a fortune for a 9 year old! Thank you so very much. We really appreciate it. Hope to see you guys soon!Feb 10, 20150
- Jim JoyceBackerJason, I enjoyed your talk at the DVPS meeting last month. Hope to see you in Wyoming this summer!Feb 07, 20151

- Ashley FormentoBackerWow Jason! Great news; and good luck!! AshleyFeb 07, 20151
- Jason P ScheinResearcherThank you so much, Ashley. We're making stay progress!Feb 07, 20150
- Guy GsellBackerIf you raise double the money can you excavate two dinosaurs? (Or does it not work that way?)Feb 07, 20151
- Jason P ScheinResearcherThanks so much, Guy! Well, with this money we need to get out all three. So, I guess if we raise double the money, that's 6 dinosaurs. That's a tall order for 3 weeks, but I'm up to the challenge. It would be a nice problem to have!Feb 07, 20150
- Sharon Sperry BloomBackerGo team! (especially MK)Feb 06, 20151

- Robert A BonazziBackerDr. Parris, So glad to help. Been a while since I have been collecting but my library is still filled with my fossil finds. I will never forget the kindness you showed my daughter and I when we viewed your lab. My daughter is now a senior and headed for a career in public policy, not a scientist, as I had hoped but a young woman who has a deep understanding of the central importance of science for our future. good luck with the project.
