No palaeontologist is complete without such a hat!
This is probably the only thing i agree with jack horner on: "I can't say hats are as precious to palaeontologists as they are to Texans, but they can be something of a signature, or talisman... Excavations are never, ever done in the shade. Where there is erosion and exposure, there is inevitable sun, and a hat, which is absolutely necessary, can gather memories and significance."
