    I remember reading that that YEC insists that fossilization can occur
    "within 100 years". It seems a little toooooooo fast. What exactly
    do they mean by "fossilization" in this context.

    Is this in reference to bone and other calcium based materials, as
    opposed to say cartilage or other even softer materials?

    Would that correspond to the most "ideal" imagined conditions
    (essentially only possible in a laboratory)?

    Are there any real facts at all behind this claim?
