Just saw this now.  I did get to see them and I have to say, they do give you goose bumps.  Such very impressive work from long ago...almost scared to touch them!

I belong to a small amateur archelogy club an we had Dr. Grambly as our quest speaker an he brought some new clovis points from the Sugarloaf Mt. site in Mass. Totally amazing points, some of these were never hafted , so they believe they were in a point production area of a camp site. this site has been dug earlier but for only 4 days in 1985 an has been tied up in legal private ground preservation issues and has just been opened to archelogist again. He believes this will be the largest clovis site in North america. Sorry if I'm stepping on some toes and hijacking thread.  90% of these points were Normanskill material brought in from 100 miles south of camp. Bob
