From the Apollo 15 Lunar Surface Journal:

145:12:42 Irwin: Oh, you really...Let me hold that Rover and you come up and look at this, because this rock has got green in it, a light green...

145:12:48 Scott: Okay...

145:12:49 Irwin: ...color. Come on.

145:12:50 Scott: Okay; I'll just stand here until you're through...

145:12:51 Irwin: Yeah.

145:12:52 Scott: ...and then I'll go up and take a look at it.

145:12:58 Irwin: The first green rock I've seen. Light green.

145:13:01 Allen: Roger. We're copying all of it.

145:13:04 Irwin: Okay. Where do you want me to hold it?

145:13:07 Scott: Well, just...Come down and stand on your side.

145:13:08 Irwin: On my side?

145:13:09 Scott: Yeah.

145:13:10 Irwin: Okay.

[Scott, from a 1996 letter - "Jim's side is downslope, and he can keep it from sliding."]
145:13:11 Scott: You stand there and take a break.

145:13:12 Irwin: I'm taking one.

145:13:13 Scott: Okay. (Long Pause while Jim gets positioned)

145:13:26 Irwin: Okay.

145:13:28 Scott: Okay. Are you firmly situated there?

145:13:29 Irwin: Yeah.

145:13:32 Scott: Okay.
