$9 for how much ambergris? That's not made clear in the article _____
All right, I've thrown in a little more modern info on ambergris uses and Ambrox. Somebody who knows something about it might want to speak a little more concretely on how ambergris is developed in the whale; whale physiology is really the only non-historical aspect from which ambergris is still of interest.
Also, I'm not aware of whether collected ambergris is still valuable/marketable. It stands to reason that it could still be used, but Ambrox may be considered of a higher quality, or may require less processing for use.
If somebody else doesn't, maybe I'll get around to writing a sclareol page at least, if not an Ambrox page. Natural products in general could stand a lot of fleshing out around here. -TimeLord mbw 00:51, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)
