I just got this email. Since we have discussed salt production in medieval

> Dear Sir,
> having just commenced a life time project in Slovenia to rivitalize the
> Secovlje salt pans, famous for its whitest of white salt which develops
> over the unique, so called PETOLA, a 3 mm gelly carpet formed by a

> blossom of salt (collected in two days), and are to continue this year
> with our first commercial production.
> All enquiries will be wellcome and we will be happy to keep you informed
> of the extent of our project in terms of a nature park, restoration of
> stone salt workers' houses and a talassoteraphy resort.
> Yours sincerely,
