Hi Bob and all!

When I think slickenside, I think of a polished surface where something 
rubbed on the surface to polish it.  I don't see this in any of the 
pictures.  My samples do not have this....so I guess I will have to just 
buy some more!!! Very interesting.  What do you guys suppose did this?  
It would not have had anything to do with the break up, I suppose.
