Amber Listserv / Amberguous

[Andy Ng]

"Ahh I see, said the blind man to the ice-cream seller."

I guess it was only you posting, Glen. Thanks so much for your response. I
had been meaning to reply to your post on the copal vs amber debate, but
wanted to make sure the listserv was chugging along properly first.

What would you make of this scenario: a piece of amber (about 9 inches to a
foot thick) tests positive as amber by its resistance to acetone doused on
it. BUT when sawn open and has the exposed innards splashed with acetone, is
marred like a copal? Amber on the outside, copal on the inside.
