Come on Adam, can't you take a little prodding? It was meant in fun. I don't 
have time to call Ted to ask about  L4 chondrites.
Mike.

Mike,
Talk to Dr. Bunch who claimed this meteorite has the most extreme range he
has seen in a regolith breccia.  After talking to NAU please report to the
List your findings.

Adam, not to be a pain, but there is absolutely nothing rare or important
about an L4 S2-4 W1 meteorite. I have piles of common chondrites sitting
in
my garage.  So why the "hupelah" about this one:)
