Rocks look good to me:

3. A rock fragment foreign to the igneous rock in which it

A quantity of rocks so sorted.

For some reason I never got the original list, though it's right there in the Google group and I saw it in places like this email. I won't worry about this unless it starts happening with some regularity, though.

Anyhow, I vote for the vaguely-related 2 and 10.
