Oblivious as always, I see...

Yes, Mark, provide me with that list again, but this time just eliminate everything on it that was based on Shoemaker's earlier work - in other words, everything derivative, in one way or another - and everything he co-authored earlier - for, as new data on cometary impact came in, Shoemaker substantially revised his impact estimates, so these earlier pieces are no longer accurate, by their lead author's own statement.
