WHO WILL HOST THE NEXT ACCRETIONARY WEDGE

  I've only been involved with the Accretionary Wedge (https://theaccretionarywedge.wordpress.com/  ) for a short while, but I have enjoyed it so much. I want it to succeed. I keep on musing on who will be the next host after I do  AW -32: the Carnival  theme Throw me your ‘favorite geologic picture mister.
   To help me pick a topic I complied this list of the previous Accretionary Wedges.  I thought I would share this with others to maybe inspire someone with a new topic.

A  list of Accretionary Wedge topics that have been used so far:

                before  (and likely surprised you in some way).
