MartinS has found a dirty trick how to solve this problem, so now it is just a question of implementation. :) In any case, we would welcome a good example (or even an algorithm), how those random blocks should look like...

UIS is using dots symbol for "Sand-Silt-Clay-Humus". So I suggest to let exist clay symbol and add mud symbol. Then we will have three symbols:
mud for wet sediment, clay and sand for dry sediment. In UIS symbol set, it will be the same symbol.

We have a problem with that - in one symbol set used in Lechuguilla cave (I am not able to locate it on the WEB now), we have found a RAFT and RAFT CONE symbols. We still do not know, for what we should use them... Therefore we would like to remove them (I guess, nobody used them until now).

And we would also like to add three new point symbols we are missing:
stalactites
stalagmites
stalactites-and-stalagmites
They will mark places, where these speleothems occur in bigger amounts.
