		I have been told by two "oldtimers" about something they were calling palmwood.
		As I understand it might be ancient palmtrees which have undergone some type of replacement, however the elderly gentlemen I spoke with did not describe it as petrified wood.
		As I understand it might be quite valuable and was wondering if it would be worth the effort to try and find the localities that the oldtimers remembered.
