*****************************************************************************

As many museums and science centers have done, we have been using walnut
shells in our fossil dig pits.  However, it has come to our attention
that there could be issues regarding walnut shell allergies. Has anyone
encountered any issues using walnut shells?  If so, did you discontinue
using them - what did you replace with?   Or did you continue to use
them and posted signs warning of possible reactions?
