Yorksite -- A Perspective This website originated on several levels with my father, whose professional life was in analytical chemistry, particularly as an x-ray crystallographer, solving industrial problems. Overall, though, the graphic arts, music, and literature were never neglected. Within his chosen specialty, one of his points of quiet pride was being represented within scientific history by an obscure mineral that he had characterized. For a website, the name thereby provides a multi-level pun, which I suspect he would have appreciated. Thus, I will pass along his smile. |

These were followed by his father's 1894 newspaper account of a hunting event, from a still further back ancestor's wilder youth. |
