There have been significant changes to the Opportunity grind spot area
between days 30 and 33.  For example compare:

It looks like maybe the area was compressed in the interim. Rock doesn't compress ... or melt. The area have been ground some more, but then that
could not account for the fact that the some of dust particles on the
blueberries are the same size, shape and location, while others are not.

Just doesn't look like rock to me.

Previously I noted in:

the twisted rope-like fiber bundles at pixel coordinates:

494,392;  530,188;  341,136.

One of the features was cut and attached.

The really large bundle of twisted fiber appears to have moved considerably
inside its niche, something that could not easily happen if it were
petrified or made of rock.
