When someone says a fossil originated from Holzmaden, what geologic formation 
would that be? It's weird how they no one ever seems to specify. The obvious 
guess would be that they're referring to a "Holzmaden Formation" named after 
the town, but Googling that brings up a mere 58 results, with one of the top 5 
being about the Pseudoscience Which Must Not be Named. That number sounds 
suspiciously small for such a well-publicized fossil site, so I'm having 
doubts. What *is* the formation of origin for "Holzmaden" fossils?
