Original post

From Fabre Minerals, a commercial site that sells rocks/minerals. It's a series of green crystals projecting, needle-like, from a more normal looking green/orange rock substrate. They resemble fans of pillars, like certain scenes in movies depicting Superman's Fortress of Solitude.

Malachite is a copper carbonate hydroxide mineral formed by precipitation of copper ores dissolved in groundwater.

The rate at which the mineral is deposited can radically alter the crystalline shape, including producing needle-like ('acicular') crystals as shown here.

Hence, do NOT touch.

If they don't have the same rules for Donald Trump as they do Eric Swalwell, this isn't about accountability.
You may want to let them know this.

How do we demand people resign their posts if they won't release the files?????
