Larry Medina answered "... the core samples are an object that supports a record.  The actual records would be the REPORT related to the core sample and the initial REQUEST to extract one. The sample itself would serve as supporting evidence for the record/s."

Larry, NONE of the geotechnical engineers with whom I have spoken would agree with you. (I quote) They want to see the core, feel it, smell it, test it, and [in the case of one engineer] taste it. You can't do any of that with a report.

It seems to me we are using too narrow a definition of "record".
